Personally, I doubt that any serious comparison between Django and another framework hinges on the availability of a downloadable documentation. Let's break this down. We have finite resources, so you have a choice between: 1) Good documentation that is only available online 2) A slightly worse product, and slightly worse documentation that is available as a downloadable package. This sounds extreme, but it is the real situation. Any resources we spend on building the tools to support an automated documentation package are resources we don't spend working on Django itself. You apparently would prefer option 2. That's your choice. However, Django has decided to choose option 1. If you feel that the availability of a downloadable documentation package is a valuable resource, you are free to set up the infrastructure to manage this process yourself. If you can provide concrete evidence that there is a massive demand for this service, we will obviously reconsider our opinion. In the meantime, we provide the tools to enable you to build your own offline documentation.
