Hey Adam, It will eventually be in the Kicad documentation at
http://docs.kicad-pcb.org/stable/en/kicad.html There were some github macros that hauptmech added that broke the documentation build. Apparently asciidoc was choking on them which is unfortunate as they made the github adoc conversion and viewing much nicer than our vanilla adoc files. The commit to fix this was made 14hrs ago so it should be built soon. Once the website is updated, you should be able to grab the link. If you don't see it within 24 hours, please let me know an I will see if I can get it resolved.
