Hi,
maybe PoorMan can serve dynamic user guide... But then it needs to run all the
time. Or can we start on-demand?
Server-Kit would be cool with interchangeable plugins for Ruby, PHP, CGI, and
so on.
Just an idea...

Hello there!
The Userguide package is currently almost 70 MiB big, containing 17
languages. That's a lot of unnecessary downloading when normally you
only need one or two languages. I have broken it down to individual
languages, each 4.3 MiB.
Proper Haiku releases should still come with all languages
pre-installed, but even then, a user can delete the unneeded packages
to save space (and time when updating only a 4 MiB package instead of
70 MiB).
The one argument against it is that in the header of each userguide
page is a menu to choose the language. Selecting a language that's not
installed will result in a 404.
Is that acceptable? After all, the user has removed those languages on
purpose and shouldn't be too surprised that they are now missing...
Or should the language-choosing menu simply be removed from the
userguide pages (it is kinda neat though...)? The
~/config/settings/WebPositive/LoaderPages/Userguide could determine
the language to show. There's even ticket #9322 [1] where dsjonny
provides the changes to do just that, though there's still an issue
that e.g. pt_BR and pt_PT aren't being distinguished.
Maybe the LoaderPage should instead generate a page with all the
available languages and present that.
Regards,
Humdinger
