Where is the best place to find the latest manuals for the Husky software?
I was using mimac.bizzi.org/huskydocs but the site seems to have stopped working.
From memory some windows versions of the software shipped with html versions and txt versions of the manuals. I looked in some of the areas I pulled down from github but can't see just a docs repo to clone.

How about http://download.huskyproject.org/docs/ ?

Fixed, thank you and sorry for the issue. :)
Forgot about that bit, just went looking in each repo like HPT in the
docs folder to start with... but they did not have the html ref stuff.
There is an hpt.texi in the hpt/doc directory. You can make info, html
and even a plain text from that with makeinfo. Run make in that
directory and see what you get.

The download site has a periodic "snapshot" for all the suite at GitHub, it's good for sysops that don't want to pull and build the suite every time a commit occours.
The GitHub site has always the latest versions of all the software, you can clone/pull the updated piece of software and build the latest brand new version, this is useful, for example, if need to run new functionalities, or to solve a bug fixed in the latest version. :)

Is it better to remove it from wiki?

I'm not on latest but in the past the hpt doc were build from a .texi
file during complilation.
To provide a fast and easy access to latest documentation i'd like to suggest to place a prebuild .txt ascii version for each module to the github.

First of all I want to say that the documentation in the wiki was made partly manually, I did not manage to make it automatically, so it
cannot be the latest version.
As to the latest documentation it can be made in several forms. Those
who run a UNIX-like OS may clone the GitHub repo and using a simple command get info- and/or man-pages. From my point of view this is
better than plain ascii.
GitHub repo contains sources and it is not good to place anything
compiled from the sources to the repo including a prebuilt ascii text.

Maybe i misunderstood. Did you talked about the docs itself or the
link to huskyproject?

Date shows 2018 and that's the reason why i was looking for a more
recent version. Could it become a yearly update event?

Yes, i do agree. I have to admit that i'm not on the latest version
and that i'm to lazy to pull the git and do a compilation of the docs
for the purpose of a check for the actual keywords when i tried to
support the route configuration. I copied the text from the texi and edited it to ascii manually. Lazy as i am the idea was to have quickly accessable file for reference.
Is it possible to use other mechanisms of github? I noticed that
github could handle releases too.

Here you talk about download.huskyproject.org.
There is no sense to publish the documentation yearly, it is much
better to publish it when it changes as it is now.

You are lazy? Oh, no! You spent much more time for editing texi, you
could get the info-pages of the docs within a minute.

No. At

is a rev date of dec 9, 2018.

The latest local updates are done with the build/make update run. An online publication is for people like me who are not on the latest version. Yes, "me" are not many and maybe i'm the only one. On the
other hand there are many man pages available online. The idea for
yearly updates was to reduce the manual page updates but have a more recent manual than from 2018.

I would if it's that easy. But there is no makeinfo for my system. The steps that are required to get it can't be done in a minure and would
be temporary. The "lazy" solution would be a system migration which is already in progress but because of never touch a running system the
node is on the todo list with low priority. My actual situation is
like the two locations of the husky project, where github is active
and the sf net is still there.
OK, I understood you. Maybe the easiest way will be publishing docs in html and plain text via "GitHub releases".

Maybe it is possible but for me it is much easier to handle the releases.

What does it mean exactly? A downloadable html or plaintext file from
the release page?
Anyway it would be good to update huskyproject.github.io with links to current releases and documentation. (The website src used to use C #includes for assembling the pages, interesting and simple approach).
I could commit some updates (without adding anything fancy - I like
plain html).
