there was once a good reason for only updating the manual at release
time. Because
then the online manual does reflect the released version of Org.
However, the times between releases are getting longer, the Emacs
version is always behind,
and we are making many small changes to the manual all the time. So I
do agree that this is a good development. Do we need to say on the
home page that the manual documents the leading edge and that some of
the documented features may disappear again in the course of iterations?
But then, maybe we do not need to do that because changes to the
manual are often made a bit later, when a new feature has been agreed
on.
All the best
- Carsten
