I think using QGIS SVN for the management of the documentation source
files will be sufficient. I'd like to import the sources soon.

If some functionality is not available from QGIS 1.0, there should be
an appropriate warning with minimal required version.

Well... it should be more a guide than a list of standalone recipes.
For that, we could set up a site similar to djangosnippets.org - its
source code has BSD license - however I'm not sure if there would be
enough content for such a site.
