 We have documentation for Cactus and the ET on their respective websites.
 This should be updated automatically when the source is changed, so it is
 never out of date.  There should be documentation for the current release
 as well as the current development version.

 There is one technical problem standing in the way of this.  The system
 should be automated, and it needs to have commit rights to a specific
 directory in the SVN repository hosting the files.  SVN accounts for CCT
 machines tend to be the same as CCT login accounts, so we don't want to
 store the username and password.  I think the best solution is to create
 an SVN account specifically for the documentation build system which is
 not tied to a CCT login account.  This account would be given commit
 access to just the directories necessary.

 The "checkout, build doc, commit" script should be kept in version control
 somewhere, and a machine should be chosen on which to run it.  It could be
 run regularly, or just in response to commits.
