JB, starting to work on a release would be great. It will both allow a =
larger audience to try out ACE and it will help grow the community.

My suggestion would be to start small with wiki pages. Based on the =
content volume it will not be hard to morph into a manual subproject =
later.
Also a release could be done even before the guides are ready. The =
feedback on the first release may help shaping up the guides. Plus =
getting the release process right may take a bit of effort.

Any volunteer for release manager role? I was a release manager for a =
couple of projects and I volunteer to help the volunteer :).

My $0.02,
Hadrian
