A suggestion to the author: the documentation must be in HTML pages, not PDF files. That would help search immensely and make references much easier. Furthermore, how about loading the code on GitHub or the like instead of distributing tarballs? Both PDF and tarballs smell of 90s.
Actually I remember tuwien.ac.at from the times where I was downloading software sources from FTP mirrors in the early 90s, so that's a good nostalgic fit :-)
A suggestion for other researchers: start with a git repository and documentation written as .md files. Then write your thesis with LaTeX and export a PDF if you feel like, but for all the developers the source of truth will be the repository and the mds.
