Yeah, I think I got that. And as you said it's currently done in two steps:

1. Build the HTML from respective branch
2. Manually copy the result to the help.ubuntu.com branch from where
   it's automatically copied to the site via a cron script.

Maybe I'm worrying unnecessarily. :) But I still would appreciate a
meeting to clarify a few things before a lot of work is done.
