a) Develpment documentation must be available for offline work.
   Folding the development READMEs into the developer guide now
   that the stuff has moved over to asciidoc would reduce the
   number of places to two - and the developer's guide is available
   via web, so there is no problem with creating tutorials and
   similar stuff in the wiki and then linking to the dg for the
   details.
b) My preferred workflow doesn't require me to use a web browser
   (except for bugzilla, the wiki and ask - and there is a reason
   why I don't show much presence in either of these things).

My -2 cents.

We are stuck with technology when what we really want is just stuff that
works. Some say that should read Microsoft instead of technology.
