I'll add my voice on this front.  When I've needed a special update
(for a workshop, where I needed to print out hardcopies as up-to-date
as possible), Travis was very forthcoming and gave me quickly his most
recent copy.

So while a few weeks ago a couple of emails may not have been replied
quite on the spot, overall I don't feel in any way slighted by his
handling of the doc system, quite the opposite.  And he also indicated
he was in the process of setting up a more automated system.

To be honest, I'd rather wait for a manual upate than see Travis
devote one or two evenings to configuring something of this nature
when he could be coding for numpy :)
