Sounds good to me. Rev Docs are fine and available locally - it's the  
additional stuff and open source collaborative environment that makes  
this useful - not replicating the existing docs.

How about the French and German versions of the Docs? Or perhaps  
Japanese?

I do wish you guys would have a clear and positive open source  
strategy which would allow the community to release some of it's  
latent potential. License your docs under a Creative Commons (non- 
commercial license) would enable others to contribute without  
enabling them to use the material commercially. The community here is  
an asset you should really learn to make more use of. Holding on to  
non-essential copyright and in so doing holding back valuable  
contributions is plain daft.

Chinese anyone?
