primarily todo with sisu documentation, changelog reproduced below:

* start documenting sisu using sisu
  * sisu markup source files in
    data/doc/sisu/sisu_markup_samples/sisu_manual/
    /usr/share/doc/sisu/sisu_markup_samples/sisu_manual/
  * default output [sisu -3] in
    data/doc/manuals_generated/sisu_manual/
    /usr/share/doc/manuals_generated/sisu_manual/
    (adds substantially to the size of sisu package!)

* help related edits

* manpage, work on ability to generate manpages, improved

* param, exclude footnote mark count when occurs within code block

* plaintext changes made

* shared_txt, line wrap visited

* file:// link option introduced (in addition to existing https?:// and
  ftp://) a bit arbitrarily, diff here, [double check changes in sysenv and
  hub]

* minor adjustments
  * html url match refinement
  * css added tiny_center

* plaintext
  * endnotes fix
  * footnote adjustment to make more easily distinguishable from substantive
    text
  * flag -a only [flags -A -e -E dropped]
    controlled by modifiers --unix/msdos --footnote/endnote

* defaults, homepage
  * renamed homepage (instead of index) implications for modifying skins,
    which need likewise to have any homepage entry renamed
  * added link to sisu_manual in homepage

* css the css for the default homepage is renamed homepage.css (instead of
  index.css) [consider removing this and relying on html.css]

* ruby version < ruby1.9
  * place stop on installation and working with for now [ruby String.strip
    broken in ruby 1.9.0 (2007-09-10 patchlevel 0) [i486-linux],
    2007-09-18:38/2]
  * debian/control restrict use to ruby > 1.8.4 and ruby < 1.9

* debian
  * debian/control restrict use to ruby > 1.8.4 and ruby < 1.9
  * sisu-doc new sub-package for sisu documentation
    debian/control and sisu-doc.install

+SISU - REMOTE OPERATIONS [0.58],
+RALPH AMISSAH
+***********************************************
+
+SISU REMOTE OPERATIONS
+======================
+
+1. REMOTE SOURCE DOCUMENTS
+--------------------------
+
+*SiSU* processing instructions can be run against remote source documents by
+providing the url of the documents against which the processing instructions
+are to be carried out. The remote *SiSU* documents can either be sisu marked up
+files in plaintext .sst or .ssm or; zipped sisu files, sisupod.zip or
+filename.ssp
+
+
+*.sst / .ssm - sisu text files*
+
+
+*SiSU* can be run against source text files on a remote machine, provide the
+processing instruction and the url. The source file and any associated parts
+(such as images) will be downloaded and generated locally.
+
+
+
+  sisu -3 http://[provide url to valid .sst or .ssm file]
+
+Any of the source documents in the sisu examples page can be used in this way,
+see <http://www.jus.uio.no/sisu/SiSU/2.html> and use the url for the desired
+document.
+
+
+NOTE: to set up a remote machine to serve *SiSU* documents in this way, images
+should be in the directory relative to the document source ../_sisu/image
+
+
+*sisupod - zipped sisu files*
+
+
+A sisupod is the zipped content of a sisu marked up text or texts and any other
+associated parts to the document such as images.
+
+
+*SiSU* can be run against a sisupod on a (local or) remote machine, provide the
+processing instruction and the url, the sisupod will be downloaded and the
+documents it contains generated locally.
+
+
+
+  sisu -3 http://[provide url to valid sisupod.zip or .ssp file]
+
+Any of the source documents in the sisu examples page can be used in this way,
+see <http://www.jus.uio.no/sisu/SiSU/2.html> and use the url for the desired
+document.
+
+
+REMOTE DOCUMENT OUTPUT
+======================
+
+2. REMOTE OUTPUT
+----------------
+
+Once properly configured *SiSU* output can be automatically posted once
+generated to a designated remote machine using either rsync, or scp.
+
+
+In order to do this some ssh authentication agent and keychain or similar tool
+will need to be configured. Once that is done the placement on a remote host
+can be done seamlessly with the -r (for scp) or -R (for rsync) flag, which may
+be used in conjunction with other processing flags, e.g.
+
+
+
+  sisu -3R sisu_remote.sst
+
+2.1 COMMANDS
+............
+
+*-R [filename/wildcard] *
+copies sisu output files to remote host using rsync. This requires that
+sisurc.yml has been provided with information on hostname and username, and
+that you have your "keys" and ssh agent in place. Note the behavior of rsync
+different if -R is used with other flags from if used alone. Alone the rsync
+--delete parameter is sent, useful for cleaning the remote directory (when -R
+is used together with other flags, it is not). Also see -r
+
+
+*-r [filename/wildcard] *
+copies sisu output files to remote host using scp. This requires that
+sisurc.yml has been provided with information on hostname and username, and
+that you have your "keys" and ssh agent in place. Also see -R
+
+
+2.2 CONFIGURATION
+.................
+
+[expand on the setting up of an ssh-agent / keychain]
+
+
+3. REMOTE SERVERS
+-----------------
+
+As *SiSU* is generally operated using the command line, and works within a Unix
+type environment, *SiSU* the program and all documents can just as easily be on
+a remote server, to which you are logged on using a terminal, and commands and
+operations would be pretty much the same as they would be on your local
+machine.
