Let's do it. We've been talking about the documentation problem for years. We've made a good bit of progress every once in a while during those years, but I bet we could make a whole lot of progress if we forced ourselves to all get together and dedicate 4-16 hours on it during the hackathon. Noel, Jean, and a few others have also talked about working on docs lately; I've wanted to help, but haven't made the time to work on anything not directly related to legal stuff. So, let me put it this way: I'm committed to sit at a table for at least eight hours during the two hackathon days and make some progress on this stuff with Robert and whomever else can make it. We should also be able to have some live collaboration over irc with folks who aren't able to make it to Dublin.
sounds like a good plan :-) unless anyone beats me to it, i'll post something announcement-esque to somewhere appropriate (maybe community and/or site, or possibly an announcements list) BTW i've started on a little project already (inspired by a comment David Reid made months ago). i'm going through and add indexes to the existing documents (using a style sheet to speed things up). i hope to add a detailed index to either the main dev page or linked from it. the index will be generated using xslt to make it easy to maintain. - robert
