This link

mps/readme.txt

Lines 62 to 63 in 2ef000a

Then, to program and integrate the MPS you'll definitely need to read
the `manual <manual/html/index.html>`_.
works in the context of the Ravenbrook MPS site because the manual is built there. But on GitHub the manual is only in source form.

It's not good exhorting people to read the manual when the link is bust!

We probably need to build and publish the manual automatically somewhere else.

We should look at how some other projects do it.

When we decide on a canonical location for the built manual, we should be sure to search the tree for links and update them. There may be links to https://www.ravenbrook.com/project/mps/master/manual/html/ (or versions) lurking.
