Thanks for the input, Peter! I hear what you're saying, but a question...you wouldn't expect to find any documentation to use? The release-specific (the getting started flavor docs, IPS, et al.) docs will also be available via the .com site. But from a community development standpoint, wouldn't you want the .org docs community to aggregate the information that might be useful to you?
