Where are the on-going > development pages located (url)? This is the problem. I was not able to figure out the URL (if there is any). If there was an open dir like it is for this project (KiCad) for instance: http://docs.kicad-pcb.org/ it would be much easier to search through the docs version without the need to update the web page at every new version... if you try with gimp you get this old page: https://docs.gimp.org/ So first and foremost we should ask a web developer where it is. If there is none, I would ask gently the developers to create one with an CI server connected just to render the on-going documentation and translation efforts continuously. Is it asking too much?
