documentation in version control

Description
The documentation on the wiki describes the current version. Previous versions must have documentation available and the wiki does not look like the best way to preserve that.
Perhaps a "Print page to PDF" capability can be added to the wiki.
Otherwise, the documentation should be moved to files maintained by version control and gathered/tagged by release version.

Moving ahead with the transition of documentation from mediawiki to DocBook?/v5.0.
There is a WWW tool (http://toolserver.org/~magnus/wiki2xml/w2x.php) to convert between these formats but it always requires some hand-editing. See changesets [91-103] for more details so far.

Alternatively, one can use
PDF Export to convert into PDF your MediaWiki? pages. The extension works with (requires) the open source htmldoc package.

See changesets [90], [91], and [92] for progress. This is the important comment from changeset [91]: Start to convert documentation to DocBook?. Refs #19. This way, correct documentation can be kept with each revision of the standard.
Note, this comment still did not get attached to this TRAC ticket.
