I'm not sure this is a larger issue so much as a reflection of the fact
that we haven't fully pulled everything in yet. That is to say, the docs
are in a not-yet complete state right now, so attempts to build any of
them (Runbook excepted) are going to be iffy.

I get a "Status Code: 404" page from this?

I don't think we need CI for this, really. Once docs are in a stable
state, it should be on the folks working with the docs to do a test
publican build to ensure that it doesn't break. I've been doing a test
with the publican-all.cfg for all the stuff I've done under docs, but
not for each individual guide. 

Best,
