Agreed! As part of the coursework I'm planning for January, I can start contributing back class notes and information as well. This would be the start of documentation about how the code is laid out, formatting, etc. I see this as complementary, and whoever signs up for the course can also contribute at least 30-60 minutes of documentation cleanup as well. If the course is successful, as it is iterated, so too should new groups of students be available to help out as well. With any luck this will be self-sustaining. > I have created a wiki page: > > http://wiki.apache.org/couchdb/SourceDocumentation I'll add this to the wiki right now. -Joan
