I agree re: new section. Are you thinking that all contrib docs would
be built automatically, even if the individual extensions (neé
contrib modules?) aren't installed? I think that would definitely
raise awareness of the extensions that are available.
I'd also like to see being able to add docs for non-core extensions
(e.g., ip4r) to the main documentation. Not sure what that would
involve: rebuilding the tocs and index, besides the new pages
themselves? Or perhaps just a rebuild of the complete docs? I haven't
had docs building on a local system for a couple of years, so I'm not
it a position currently to play around with this, but it's something
I'd love to learn how to do.
