I think it is great that we have a limited number of 'canonical' documentation 
so that we have a central place to send people and so that we can all work on 
making those central docs definitive and understandable. 

Is it then considered this way;

        1. http://wiki.maemo.org/Packaging                      Quick Start     
        2. 
http://wiki.maemo.org/Documentation/Maemo_5_Developer_Guide/Packaging%2C_Deploying_and_Distributing
                                                                                
        Complete Maemo Guide
        3. http://www.debian.org/doc/maint-guide/       Authoritative Source

If this is the way we are seeing it, I can then direct people to those 
documents and focus my energies there making sure they are up-to-date and 
complete.
