The rationale is that good programmers often aren't good documenters, and
people who don't have time/energy to write code may be able to help with
documentation.  By keeping the master documentation in an easy-to-change
form, you don't have to provide commit access to someone who just wants
to correct a misspelling in the docs or clean them up in some other way.
