i am using the wiki, but that's not good (if even possible) for hosting manuals
or providing a homepage to anchor info.

the gdb folks have been moving to disconnect the sim from itself more.

the sim project has always had a separate list of maintainers.

i don't see why we need to create a separate tarball just to get access to
web hosting.  although the logic is, and always has been, in the tree to
easily create a dedicated sim release.
