I honestly don't see why the manual can't contain a quick start
section - we do this in other documentation without issue.

Again: the manual ranks highly in search results for "jhbuild", and
attracts attention as, well, the JHBuild documentation. For newcomers
it is at best a dead end, and at worst misleading. So in my opinion,
something really needs to be done about the manual.

Fred and Carlos are already doing something actionable - they've put
time and energy into integrating the BuildGnome page into the JHBuild
manual, and converting it to Mallard.

Personally, no, I don't agree (as explained above). But really, it's
up to the people doing the work.
