yeah, I'd love to not write both rules/directives formats to later
revert this addition, so ok, let's make this bug depending on the
migration to sphinx 1.0 of the 2.7 version. I've sent a follow-up of
that task to python-dev some days ago, and comments (and help!) would
be welcome there too.

ah ok, I just used the same role that was there; updated to use :ref:
- fixed that (just pushed on my repo, not updated patch yet)

as a matter of personal taste, I like small lists of commonly used
commands/roles/directives/whatever in the doc, with additional links
as needed, this give a quick idea (that's usually enough) on what to
do but also the possibility for further digging (if one wants it).

we can do that, but maybe at a later step? so now just put the doc in
the canonical place, later let's refactor it, removing dead parts and
so on? i'm fine anyhow

I'll fix them in the mean time.

eheh, well but a tiny tiny part remains :) if we go for a redirect to
the devguide, I'm all for removing all that section from the doc; I
left it there in case someone still refers directly to documenting/ or
so (but indeed, all the sub-pages are no more reachable).

I can provide the configuration, but I don't have access to the
machine, so some admins must be there as well.

Cheers,
Sandro
