Re: [Jython-dev] Jython Book update

[Jim B. <jim...@py...>]

Julian,

The Jython book should be updated. Given that the book is open source,
under a CC-SA license, and that the source text is in reStructuredText, at
https://kenai.com/projects/jythonbook (in Mercurial), it would be a simple
matter of restarting.

I suggest that we move the book development to a repo in
https://github.com/jython, so we can take advantage of the tooling that is
provided by GitHub. It's possible that we could even have CI that could
generate new sections/chapters based on pull requests. As PRs are merged,
we could automatically release updates, possibly also tagged eg to
http://www.jython.org/jythonbook/en/2.x. Other languages could of course be
hosted there as well.

Setting this process up doesn't seem so much so work, which is good,
because it's the content of the book itself that needs to be worked on!
