If there is interest in this, we would be happy to host the documentation. Let me know if that is the case, and we can give it a much better URL than schacon.github.com. However, I tend to think that since the project is hosted[1] at kernel.org, the official documentation site should be there as well.

[1] Of course, git being git, it is not really hosted _anywhere_ in
    particular. But convention thus far has said that the kernel.org
    repository is the official one.
