Noah Slater commented on COUCHDB-906:
-------------------------------------

Don't think we should do a separate build thing for docs. Lots of effort, not much point. (Note, it would not be a release artefact. We can only use the word "release" where the artefact is voted on.)

As commented, we can just link to the RTD download links.

If we want to go further than that, then I suggest that as part of the release procedure, we extricate the docs, zip them up, and put them up on /dist somewhere. I really don't think it's necessary though.

> I mainly work on the train or in airports without Internet access, so I need offline documentation.
> I tried to wget -r the couchdb wiki but I hit some kind of flood protection.
> Apparently MoinMoin can sync between two instances if xmlrpc is enabled. It seems to be enabled but broken in the CouchDB wiki.
> Please could you put the wiki pages into hg or git and offer a read-only clone or a downloadable tarball of the html versions of the pages?
> Cheers, Chris.
