You mean the same box that you use for pear.php.net?

Well, not sure what you are talking about here. The only problem I
could see is to run wine itself on a web server, if that's the case :)

The doc team has a dedicated server to generate the docs and it has
many free cycles. There is no manual upload, everything is automatic
(Yes, Bjori, I forgot the PDF :( ).

I wonder why you did not simply use it too? Besides the fun of
installing wine, it will be nicer ;)
