why no new version of zsh guide ?

why no new version of zsh guide ?

[Marc Chantreux]

hello people (especially Peter),

replying to Lennert, i was wondering why both the zsh guide and
the "from bash to zsh" book were unmaintained. zsh guide was a
really nice read and probably deserve some updates as it was about 
zsh 3 (AFAIK).

i just download the tarball and saw the yodl source and i found no
licence. Peter: why not pushing those sources into a repo, add a
licence and let people update it ?

Also, i guess much more people is familiar to markdown more than yodl
nowaday but also i see that yodl is still maintained (version 2 in
2017). is yodl still relevant today ? should it be a good thing to 
have a markdown version of this guide ?

regards,

Judging from how often users update zshwiki.org, i doubt
it would happen frequently, if at all.

i think i rarely contributed to zshwiki a long time ago but
a wiki (especially with the docuwiki syntax) is unpleasant.

i bet most of us are more familiar to pull requests.
