Wow, glad to be involved! 

I've written to a few open source dev communities before with varying
levels of response.  This one is the most welcoming and encouraging I've
yet encountered.  (Not that my body of experience is at all big--kind of
the opposite.  But I appreciate the atmosphere and spirit of the group. :)

What does the toolchain contain?  Is it simply the XSL / Ant
buildfiles?  Does it all live under /documentation ?

This is something I've always wondered about but never figured out.  How
does the patch process work?  (I have Subclipse on EasyEclipse for LAMP,
and the SyncroSVN client that comes with <oXygen /> XML Editor.

I've never worked on shared code before, this is exciting. :)
