Speaking of which what is the status on the reST conversion, Trent? I'd 
be interested in revising/recreating my Sphinx branch (there is now a 
rst2pdf support addon and I think someone has/is close to having an HTML 
big-page addon now, too)...

It may be a good idea to simply take the already ported pages and put 
them up in a sub-folder or alternate instance of darcsit so that people 
can read through what exists and find obvious bugs in the reST 
conversion. It would certainly make it easier to get more eyes on the 
conversion.
