New Docs folder setup: original proprietary docs files are kept in /pcsx2/Docs, and distributable PDFs should be generated from them into /bin/docs for releases. :)

Docs are using Word 2000 format, which hopefully will be consistent between Word 2003/2007 and OpenOffice (not all devs are Word-enabled).

(note: FAQ has been converted from rtf to doc, and is currently in a partially-reformatted state.  I'll finish applying the improved formatting soon)

/pcsx2/Docs/ Folder
---------------------------
This folder contains original "editable format" documents that are packaged with releases.
Changes and updates should be made to these files and then exported to PDF format into the
/bin/docs/ folder prior to running installers or packaging zip files.
Also contained in this folder for now are the GPL license and header files. These are not
needed for building public releases.
The legacy/ folder contains changelogs and blogs for the CVS development branch of PCSX2
(being 0.9.4 and prior releases).
IMPORTANT: Documents saved here must be of a format everyone (or most everyone) can read!
This seems to exclude Word 2007 and ODT (openoffice) formats; the latter because Word likes
to save non-standard ODT files that OpenOffice can't read correctly (woops). So far the
*best* choice seems to be Word 97/2000 format. It's fairly feature-full, and seems to be
well-supported by most word processors these days (most importantly Word and OpenO).
When editing and re-saving doc files, please make sure you have legacy Word 97/2000 output
enabled. Word and OpenOffice should default to retaining the format, but may prompt you to
upgrade toa newer version. IGNORE IT.
