Well, one thing that should probably be done with documentation at
least is noting what version it was designed against.

    *      The Rapid tag library
    *      Rich types
    *      Users and authentication

These are the ones that I think will be of the most use for new people
but would agree with Tiago that if any of those are due for a rewrite/
upgrade before 1.0, the docs should be held off until the changes are
made.
