Thanks Karl. We were discussing this very issue yesterday. The advantage (we 
had hoped) of linking directly to Leanpub is that everyone will get the latest 
and greatest. Farallon has been regularly updating the installation guide as 
they find (or create) easier paths to installation (there's a lot of work going 
on to that end right now, which is something that I know many will appreciate 
;-) !!!

We can, in the meantime, simply create new pdfs and post them on 
archesproject.org on a regular basis.

However, it would be great if someone knows of a more efficient, less 
labor-intensive process, ideally without having to re-format the 2 guides for a 
different publishing platform????

At http://archesproject.org/documentation/ there are links to the
"Arches Installation Guide" and "Arches User Guide" at LeanPub:

  https://leanpub.com/ArchesInstallationGuide
  https://leanpub.com/ArchesUserGuide

When I last went to them (which was recently), I did *not* need a login
or registration to access those docs -- I was able to start reading the
PDFs right away.  At least, so I recall; I definitely got to the PDFs,
because I remember reading in them, and I don't think I ever created an
account at LeanPub.

But suddenly now one needs a login to get access to the documentation.
That's bad -- they're public docs, and should be accessible anonymously
and without extra overhead, the same as anything else in the project.
Can this be fixed, either by changing settings at LeanPub, or by putting
the PDFs somewhere under archesproject.org, like

  http://archesproject.org/documentation/ArchesInstallationGuide-1.0.pdf
  http://archesproject.org/documentation/ArchesUserGuide-1.0.pdf

?  (The "1.0" might be different depending on what revision the doc
is on at any given time, of course.)
