Im prepared to help work on an _official_ version of the user docs... IMO, using the SVN and docbook format for developing something like an entire user manual may be a bit daunting for an artist or a non-dev type person that may want to contribute to user docs for inkscape - that is why i suggested maybe using the wiki for a development space of the docs, (with a strict template structure that would allow for easy conversion into the docbook format.)
that way, pretty much anyone can help out an official inkscape manual just from their browser.
cheers,

I'm very surprised to read that since i'm working in a help content since the firstdays of inkscape. See user_manual branch of the SVN. It is not the first time i notice it is forgotten. So the real question is : should i keep loosing time in maintaining it if the team and the users don't use it.
Sorry, I didn't mean to dismiss you at all. I just was not aware of your work. It's not mentioned or linked in the most obvious places. I do not claim deep knowledge of the goings on in this area, I just listed what's on the surface (i.e. in the Help menu).
