(→‎README / Manual: more CVS -> SVN)

* Ender is working on a new multi-format manual/readme. Since so far we haven't seen anything of that, Fingolfin has started a DocBook based manual (and FAQ, and Developer's Guide). You can find it in the SVN module "docs". Finally, there is a LaTeX based version of the README in the "doc" subdir of the "scummvm" SVN module, but it tends to slip out of sync with the plain text README, and it's not really a manual, it's just the README in a different file format.

* Maybe move all/most of the compression related stuff from our README completely to the tools README, and only leave a pointer to that in the main README. This would be beneficial because this way, it's only documented in one place; it's *completly* documented (currently, the main README doesn't mention compress_scumm_bun, for example); and people who want to use the compression tools need to download the tools package anyway.
* It would be greate to have a "Developer's Guide to ScummVM" which explains the ScummVM framework, and also the engines, i.e.
