   Hello Vincent,

   It's a good idea.  Nice to have a business continuity plan, if you will.   
      
   Something I want to say publicly: my documentation project is not to dimishish    
   all of the work you did on the MBSE documentation.  I am just rewriting it    
   using LaTeX so that way anyone who has to work on it in the future will be    
   able to have an easier time than dealing with HTML.  I was willing to learn    
   LaTeX/TeX to do this not only for this projecct, but for my own Cheepware    
   doors which I have released as open source.   
      
   Let me tell you, I stepped into a deep puddle with this project.   It's a    
   LOT more more than I expected but I am wanting to do this because, like you    
   said, the current MBSE documentation is damn near worthless right now from its    
   age and unreadability.
