sphinx has been a bit of a moving target.. can you set up a
virtual machine in OSX to run xubuntu 11.04 in? it's the best
way to verify the results are the same.

also note that if the Makefile changes the nightly doc build
on the adhoc server stops until I validate them. (intentional
feature, not a bug)

it would be better to make the grep regex more robust, rather
than forcing all docs to use an identical version of the nom du
jour.

grep 'OSGeo[ -]Live' *.rst

thanks,



with respect to :Version: in the ReST docs header comments, I
would like to preserve that, it makes it easy to know if I've
verified that the content is still valid for the currently
packaged version of the software. (making it the version of
the software would be just as good)  that version doesn't need
to be exported beyond the ReST document though.


cheers,
