The text now includes a description of these. I am not completely
happy with it (it feels rather disorganized), but it should be better
than nothing.

Henning seems to be interested in improving the text so we should take
this opportunity and review it before it is added to the source tree and
forgotten there. I started to read the document last night but I haven't
finished it yet. If someone else also wants to review it, please do so.

Yes. Am working on that.

Well, OK. It is hereby GPL2+ licenced, so feel free. Be sure to change
the "status of this document" section appropriately before committing.
