OK. The current version of this is primarily technical (DocBook/CVS
use), but of course it's due to be revised anyhow.
The only thing I'd add is that big documents can look imposing just by
their size... I like the way that the current Docs Project site has a
relatively short, action-orientated page ("to get contributing, do this,
then this and then this"), although I agree that the existing content of
the Quick Start Guide page ought to be part of the Big Book of
Documenting.
