I haven't been through it in detail, but it looks good to me.  I  
haven't thought too clearly about what, if anything, should become of  
the old guide (I don't know if a separate technical reference is  
warranted, which seems to be what the old guide leans towards).   
Perhaps we can post them somewhere and solicit feedback from users as  
to what they find easiest to understand and use, and what they think  
ought to be included or restructured.

As for the source of your guide, which I understand is a DocBook  
article, would be able to put it into the doc/ part of the repository  
so that we can look at it?  I understand if you'd like to hang onto  
control of it yourself (saves me some work, for a start :P), but I  
think it'd be helpful if the source was somewhere that all those  
interested in the working on documentation could see it.

Kind regards,


Maun Suang
