Cool!

This seems very much like the process that I use for updating the
release notes...the end product is of course different, and has a
different audience.  If you happen to run across anything you think
should be in the release notes, but aren't, please let me know.

Whether or not there's demand for a writeup such as this, you've got
to agree that there's no better way to learn what's going on in the
project, than by having to explain it back to the project.  :-)

Cheers,

Bruce.

PS.  Someone (des@, I think?) suggested that a team of people working
on this would be effective to prevent burn-out...let me echo this
comment.  (At least with the release notes, if I drop the ball for a
couple weeks, I can catch up by the next release.)
