What about we simply add a second set of docs, for developers? We have lots of information scattered throughout the website, the source and the heads of important people (the most volatile sort), that, put together, should make a nice set of docs that could be collected (and made a sphinx tree). Georg -- Thus spake the Lord: Thou shalt indent with four spaces. No more, no less. Four shall be the number of spaces thou shalt indent, and the number of thy indenting shall be four.
