Gramps 3.1.x Manual

From Gramps 3.0.x, the manual is no longer distributed with Gramps, and only available online, so you need an internet connection to be able to read the manual. It is available from within Gramps by pressing F1, or through the help menu, and provides in depth instructions on the use of Gramps.

Note that for distribution reasons, all edits to this manual must be dual-license: as GPL and GNU Free Documentation License.

The aim is to be also able to create a distributable manual. See Manual Generation 3.0 for ideas on how to do this.

The motivation for a wiki manual is that it is editable by all users and allows cross linking to normal wiki content, greatly improving the quality of the manuals. It does make translating the manual harder. Ideas are welcome to improve this.
