Agreed...this is what is required.

Is anyone working on guide/s at the minute?

Not sure that we need a new site, just one that gets updates.

In my view a CMS site is infinately easier to update and keep looking

If we weren't able to update the CNS one, going to a static will be a very
bad move.

Very important! Even if it's only a link from the central site to the file
(although holding a copy on the official site would be better).
