Actually if a wiki page could serve as a spine from which the above  
cold "crawl down" in tree form, that might already serviceably  
deliver something that could be used offline (?).

One of the issues to be thought about is the changing of the wiki to  
reflect changes to an ongoing evolving code base not all of which has  
been released therefore we would have the issue of pinning certain  
information. So whatever way is developed to prepare a manual would  
need to be able to stay matched to the release to which it related.
