Tactical vs. strategical approach. We have seen that folks have problems
with the current HTML format. A very simple and instant solution is to use
the project web directly. We do this already for FAQ-type of things, or
things that otherwise do make limited sense inside the doc set itself. An
example for the latter is the dynamic repository pointer I posted today --
the whole point is that it is NOT inside the tarball, so that we can change
it -for all doc versions- when there is need to. Another thing is policies
that may change over time.

In any case, using WP gets us started today, whereas otherwise we need to
wait until agreement on new doc system everybody feels comfortable with. I
love the current momentum, and I fear that now waiting for the "right"
solution will cause loss of this momentum. In the longer term, all of this
can be integrated into the new doc that hopefully becomes available within
the next couple of month.

Does this sound fair enough?
