Yes, that is good.  We could have a documentation sprint at the next  
PdCon.  I think we should have something like a 5 hour session where  
we just sit and work on documentation.  We are also trying to organize  
a FLOSSmanuals Pd book sprint, probably NYC, but also other locations  
as well.  The more the merrier!
