I'd like to draw your attention to http://joomla.github.com/joomla-platform/.
We've converted the platform manual files (and coding standards
documentation) from DocBook XML to Markdown. We believe this will be
significantly easier for people to help maintain and expand going forward.
The files can still be found at
https://github.com/joomla/joomla-platform/tree/staging/docs, and you can
send pull requests to expand/enhance the manual just as before ... we just
think this will be easier for everyone.
I'm exploring using pandoc, http://johnmacfarlane.net/pandoc/, to
auto-generate the manual in several formats for releases. If anyone else
is interested in this sort of thing I'd welcome the help, just drop me a
line. Also, it should go without saying but I'll say it anyway... please
help us expand and enhance the platform manual!!
