 sounds like a good plan :-)

unless anyone beats me to it, i'll post something announcement-esque to
somewhere appropriate (maybe community and/or site, or possibly an
announcements list)

BTW i've started on a little project already (inspired by a comment David
Reid made months ago). i'm going through and add indexes to the existing
documents (using a style sheet to speed things up). i hope to add a detaile=
d
index to either the main dev page or linked from it. the index will be
generated using xslt to make it easy to maintain.
