The website is now in a wiki. While this does have some stylistic implications as I'm often reminded...
...It should also mean that the documentation can be improved significantly, quickly, and even possibly keep pace with the code.
Please check it out, and if you're inclined create an account. There are a couple of pages that we've restricted editing to the staff, the rest of the site is open.[/b]

Yes, eventually.
DokuWiki was selected mostly because of the ease of setup, and the fact that it doesn't have a lot of external requirements which would be hard to install in our hosted environment.
I'll be working on it a little bit, I'd like to integrate the authentication and authorization with phpBB. That should give us some more flexibility also, as the user self-admin tools there are more advanced.
So for now we use images from our own server to populate the documents? Is there going to be a wiki image repository hosted on the rptools site at some point?

Mr. Ice, please check your private messasges.

2 things on images.
1) when you use the add image tool you can upload the image to the wiki and it will internally reference it. This is not optimal as we've seen it's 'cache' of the images means that it's not allowwing the browser to cache it. But it does address your concern -- you don' t have to host the images for us.
2) in the near future we may be able to host more images (outside of the wiki) for browsing and downloading. Give us a bit to work through that.

Like now? I'm updating the site to the latest dokuwiki code, which has this built in... over the next week or so I'll try to integrate the authentication with the board so it's one login for both.
there's an update profile button that will show up momentarily so that you can change the info.
Basically, a set of documentation needs to stay with the Released version (once it is released) and another needs to follow features added to the Development version.
