The idea of having the information outside reddit is great. As long as github keeps it there, it even looks nicer to read! Thank you so much for the initiative, OP. We could have it pinned or sidebarlike here somehow? Would be one more nice step forward to drop reddit for good.

This might sound stupid, but GitHub is not a reliable backup. Just see how they removed all the RARBG .torrent backups.

I don't think it's stupid! I purchased http://usenetwiki.org/ as well so we can have a general location for the community. It's not quite ready yet. I'm still in touch with PearsonFlyer and we will make sure the docs are always available going forward.

I'll also upload to GitLab as another source and make a post here once complete. Consider the docs as MIT licensed.
