Not out of the box, but the new infrastructure should in theory allow that.

One part of the work would be to look at all of the docstrings and to
check if they still describe what the functions are actually doing.
Another part would be to go over the HTML documentation and refactor
it to explain the new infrastructure.  I'm afraid the latter part can
probably only be done by Hans and me as we're not even sure that the
infrastructure will stay the way it is now.  (It will likely be very
similar to the current version, but there might be new names and some
other reshuffling.)

Thanks to you and William for offering your help, but I'm not sure if
having you working on the documentation would really buy us much right
now.  I'm pretty anal about this and I'd probably go over all of it
once again anyway... :)

What is always helpful is more people testing the dev version, playing
with it and finding and reporting bugs - as long as you don't expect
an immediate reply or fix.  You can be sure that all issues will be
taken care of eventually.  RSN...

Thanks,
Edi.
