Chuck,
yes, the generated documentation is no longer part of sources, but you can read the rst files used to generate documentation - those are just plain text files with little extra markup.
Also yes, you need ISC GitLab account to create new issues (unless it’s a security vulnerability then OpenPGP encrypted email is accepted). We need to interact with the reporters from the issue and we think this is a reasonable requirement.
The README.md has to be reviewed and fixed, but I guess you don’t need to fill the issue for this.
