In my opinion, as user, is much simpler to have the documentation in
sync with the code, thus in the same repository. asciidoc and rfcxml
processors are easy to get if you want.

If, to please the picky windows user, we want to provide on *release*
a nanomsg-docs-${version}.7z it is easy to do with a dist-hook w/out
having the pain to keep synced branches.

As developer, as long editing the docs doesn't require special tools
or large deployments such pandoc or any flavour of TeX, I should stay
happy.

As packager I prefer having a --enable-doc switch to enable/disable
docs generation.
