CentOS docs - Mar 2016 - status of https://wiki.centos.org/Documentation

Hi,

I was having a look at that page, and was wondering what we can do for
point #3 (Manuals and other documentation)
As we have no real content for CentOS 6 and 7 , my idea was just to
explain in one line that (while technically not the CentOS
documentation) , almost all the points coming from uptream documentation
( - except for subscription manager - ) can be applied to CentOS and so
having link from that section to https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en/

Ideas, thoughts, comments ?

-1 from me, because access.redhat.com documentation contains support
statements which are irrelevant to the CentOS project. I'd very much
like to avoid generating (more) confusion in potential users.

-1 from me, CentOS scope isnt the same as RHEL ones.

if we cant get the docs and host / adapt to taste, I am ok for us to
move the existing docs into an archive/ area, but retain it on the site,
along with the relevant content redirection as needed, and just drop
having current release docs.

if none is willing to do the work to make centos docs possible, clearly
the community has rejected having these docs in the first place.

regards
