It worked!!! We now have (almost) instantaneous updates to the c-docs 
documentation (as published on readthedocs.org) via github service hooks.

* c-docs moved to github: 
http://dev.plone.org/collective/changeset/242079/collective.developermanual

* Github repo: https://github.com/collective/collective.developermanual

* Readthedocs: http://collective-docs.readthedocs.org

* Old c-docs updated: http://collective-docs.plone.org

All of the data generated in your IT infrastructure is seriously valuable.
Why? It contains a definitive record of application performance, security 
threats, fraudulent activity, and more. Splunk takes this data and makes 
sense of it. IT sense. And common sense.
