Subject: New Documentation Site

Hi All,

I've moved the documentation (formerly "Wiki -> Documentation v2.x") to a
Github Pages site hosted in a `gh-pages` branch of the main repository.

The domain capify.org redirects to capistranorb.com, which is registered
via the Github CNAME (nice feature for gh-pages) file for the gh-pages
branch.

The wiki page might still be there, it can probably be removed, and time
will tell - someone will delete it; they always do.

Pull requests for documentation are more than welcome, but we had to
tighten controls a little, as the wiki page was disappearing once a week,
with people often helpfuly reorganising, without realising that we relied
on that page for our two main domains.

Footnote, the domain "Capistranorb.com" is the one I would prefer to use
going forward, on the wave of ".js" and ".rb" named projects, and to
further distance Capistrano(.rb) from it's namesake city in California.

The site is the result of an hours work on my vacation time, please feel
free to pull request improvements.

- Lee

Thanks Lee, I appreciate your excellent stewardship of Capistrano, and I think the new name will help folks find the docs with less noise.

I'm in the habit of always pre pending 'ruby' to my google queries for ruby based queries.

Google, 'god' vs 'ruby god' as an example. Talk about noise....

Absolutely Donovan!

And thanks for the kind words, I worry that I am a constant disappointment
to the community, I wish I could devote myself full time to Cap.

Suggest you mention prominently on the main documentation page how you
find the branch in the repo to make pull requests.

This extra barrier will definitely reduce the amount of people who end
up taking/having the time to take/add documentation, but I guess
everything's a tradeoff.

Jonathan,

Fair point, I actually burned all the free time I have in the next few weeks on squashing that issue. You are absolutely right about that, I hope the wiki will become deeper, rather than wider, and that people will continue to contribute to the wiki.

Ah, right, the wiki is still there too -- makes sense.

This is cool. Hopefully it makes it easy for people to contribute.

one note: www.capistranorb.com doesn't seem to resolve, (which happens to
be the url linked to from here: https://github.com/capistrano )
