I had some time today and decided to test this branch out locally. I was able 
to generate the docs without any hassle. The conversion works fine which is a 
great thing.

There are certain warning about the heading/section level we use in the 
generated adoc files, for top level heading:

> [asciidoctor:convert] asciidoctor: WARNING: dependency.adoc: line 7: section 
> title out of sequence: expected level 1, got level 2


but that’s pretty much it in terms of build time warnings/errors.

In one of my other mails I had noted that if not in this release then maybe in 
next release we can focus on this xooki to asciidoc conversion. But at that 
time I wasn’t aware that Nicolas had already done the bulk of this job by 
implementing this tool. 

So IMO, after fixing/finalizing some of those WARN related issues, we can 
probably just go ahead and use this tool to convert our current docs to adoc as 
a one time thing in our master branch. Till we are comfortable and are sure 
that the conversion is done fully, we can keep the old xooki backed docs as-is 
but just not update/add any new stuff in them. Given how nicely this tool works 
and the fact that it isn’t breaking anything, I don’t think we will have to 
maintain a separate branch to deal with this migration.

Any thoughts?

Yes, I have stopped one too. Some things will need to be manually fixed after 
the automatic conversion.

If you look at the menu on the left, it is present on each page, so it means 
that for any new file or deleted file, every page has to be regenerated. The 
consequence it that generating a page of the site has to be aware of the list 
of all the pages of the documentation.

But we can imagine that we uncouple the documentation, like it is being done 
for the old versions of the documentation, in the « history » section, by just 
having a link. So yes we could some manual copy and publish to svnpubsub on 
release.
