The rc2integrate branch also adds a note into README.md about how to build the Sphinx documentation.

Actually editing the docs mostly only requires basic text editing, since the RST syntax is meant to be human-readable. Updating the docs against classic AviSynth's changes is pretty trivial, just do an dump of the page with lynx before and after the commit that changes a particular file(s) (so you don't have to deal with all the HTML), compare the changes in something like Meld, and adjust the corresponding *.rst files in AviSynth+'s docs to match the text content, adjusting for RST or Sphinx-specific syntax.

EDIT: After looking at the commits since 2.6 Final, there were no docs changes, so the docs in rc2integrate are still as up-to-date as classic's docs. Also, generally, some of those 2.6.1 changes in classic's CVS make me want to scream in agony.
Thanks for the information. Hopefully it won't be too hard.

I would like too add some updates from the wiki, mainly the internal filters which raffriff42 has worked on (sadly the official documentation does not include these changes, see here). Also add a few things from the AviSynth+ wiki page, and maybe start documenting MT.
