You truly are a brave man :-) !!  Good luck to you, I say.

May I make one humble suggestion before this all takes off?

It would be wonderful if there was a mechanism for "patching" the database 
used by one of the tools like ri (or an overall documentation tree generated 
via Rdoc) to add new items as they are written.

Would people agree that being able to, say, run a Ruby script on your local 
machine and have it pop off to the documentation server, pull down and 
install all the documentation updates once a day (week, whatever) would be 
excellent?

Just a thought.
