our online docs



I've just noticed that the most recent version of the
gnome manual online at http://www.gnome.org/learn/ is
2.10. 

Also, while on the subject of docs online, could we do
something about the masses of dross we have at the top
of online manuals such as the Style guide and the GDP
handbook? Is this just a case of changing the XSLT
that generates those pages?

I know this risks reopening the recent debate on the
GFDL, but having swathes of legal jargon, stuff in
capitals, and names of authors before you even get to
the contents is offputting to newcomers, and makes
navigating the document a pain because it makes the
'home' link essentially useless. If that is genuinely
the GFDL's intent, then I state again: it's rubbish.
