I beg to differ. I think the docs have to be in our subversion repository, and they also should be in DocBook format, so that we can easily squeeze them to any format we desire (HTML, PDF, ...). It should just be a build option to include the docs in HTML format, for example.
A foreign repos would probably work much better because it could be more open to new contributors. And with SVN we could use svn:external to integrate that repos into ours, so it's still possible to have such a build option (OTOH, it's not such a big problem to grab the other repos, separately).
