Calm down, I'll do it. It's just a matter of time. And I am not talking about months
or years.

Yeah, and if you change something in the javadocs you have to do the same in the other
documentation. Redundancy is the root of all evil (well, in this context). I prefer to
keep one sets of documents here and the other sets of documents there. I have no
problem with moving over the stuff from the HPSF package description to the HOW-TO/Use
Case area. But I don't want to maintain the same information at two different places.
