I just discovered that the p3yk/ branch can't do a docs build because almost none of the code in Doc/tools/ is valid Python 3 [1]. How hard would it be to set up something akin to http://docs.python.org/dev/ for p3yk (ie, regular, automated builds), if only to catch problems like this sooner?

This also begs the question of whether there is anything in our docs toolchain we want to change? I have always found it annoying that I have never been able to get the docs to build for myself on my machine. Raymond's texcheck helps a lot to help prevent errors, but it is unfortunate to not be able to build changed docs to catch errors in the LaTeX.
