While on travel or in areas with no internet connectivity (or expensive), accessing the docs is (obviously) hard to impossible. It would be great to provide a way for people to download the documents, possibly through CouchDB Replication. 

Reproducible: Always




I am working on a crawler that will download and store into a couchdb system the entire JS section of the MDN docs, allowing them to be replicated down from to other peoples systems. Hope to have done by JSConf.

Sounds good. Are you looking at the MindTouch API for that?
