Yeah, I guess this is a pretty compelling argument. On the other hand,
I don't want to keep slipping releases for it, and I don't want the
documentation at release time to be seen as frozen, like in-print
books. Perhaps we can have a process where the package is automatically
updated from any changes to the doc site? A "bots do the work" kind of
thing.
