Hello Kai,

My reply about wiki was to Oli who said that wiki was an inappropriate place for the documentation if I understood him correctly. The wiki is here:

https://github.com/huskyproject/hpt/wiki

So here I talked about wiki and not about download.huskyproject.org.

Here you talk about download.huskyproject.org. There is no sense to publish the documentation yearly, it is much better to publish it when it changes as it is now.

You are lazy? Oh, no! You spent much more time for editing texi, you could get the info-pages of the docs within a minute.

 KR> Is it possible to use other mechanisms of github? I noticed that
 KR> github could handle releases too.

Yes, it is possible to publish the docs in GitHub releases.
