Convert documentations to markdown #48

I asked Josh about this yesterday: Right now the documentation (markdown) is stored in Mongo on the server. I was wondering what you all think about storing it in text files. This way we get the ease of markdown with the accessibility of text files. And this saves Josh the hassle of adding a web editor. This way we can update the files with a simple git pull. Plus, the add/remove functionality of the website will work fine with files.

Up to you guys.

Absolutely. It's effectively static content, no reason for it to be in a database.
