Hello,
Here's the first doc TODO list for 2006. We (doceng@) tried to set up a
list of documentation issues that need to be resolved. This list is of
course not complete, many things will be added in next issues. We will
try to post a such list each month.
We invite everyone to pick up a task or send PRs, and help us to
improve our documentation set. If you want to work (grab the
responsability) on a listed problem just raise your hand.
