I guess not a lot for this.  If you want to host the docs on
www.gnucash.org I've attached the (short) script that I put into
/etc/cron.daily to pull down CVS and build the docs every night.  I
don't have a strong preference where it lives.  I just wasn't sure if
you'd want to put the docs into an SSI with the GnuCash menubar.

My appologies, you are correct.  I was thinking of www.linas.org,
which used to host cvs.gnucash.org.  The new machine here is a 2.4GHz
Celeron which is mostly idle (probably about 98-99%).

Does the header and footer include the left-side menubar?  If so,
should this live on your server?  I don't particularly care where it
lives...
