  How do you think?  There are little dwarves collecting the data and doing semantic analysis on it in order to update the reference manual periodically (every hour during business days, every third hours on week-ends and holidays, and once a day when the griffins are on strike protesting about their retirement plan).

  Seriously, it is manually edited, which is the only way to make a consistent document.  For several years, there has been one single person writing it, namely Taco, and very few proofreaders, despite his repeated requests for feedback.  This makes any progress verry difficult.  And Taco is more of the elven kind anyway.
