I was planning only the actual sprint for August (perhaps a little far 
ahead, admittedly), the fortnight or so. I was hoping to get a few 
more people form the community involved beforehand with deciding the 
most important pages etc. It would also be a chance to outline a 
template for various parts, or any standards or advice we may dream up 
in terms of "Problem / Symptoms / Solution / Notes" or whatever is 
relevant. @Spork has mentioned it s a comment to my post (1) so 
thought it may be worth discussing.

I agree there should be no reason for anybody to update the docs as 
and when they wish! I'm sure many, including yourself, do; we can do 
nothing without information from anyone that can give it. This is just 
to get a handful completed and up to par with useful expectations :)

As I side note, I'll take out the 'claiming' idea. Hopefully that'll 
encourage a bit more activity an won't mean anyone thinking they need 
permission. Think I was thinking a bit too big! Just a 'get it done' 
approach, after which we can review them. Kinda wanted it to be right 
first

Do you mean, make sure I know they are there or take more care about 
where i put pages? I put this initial draft in the Scratchbook as it's 
more about the distro process, rather than a guide to getting 
something working. Feel free to move it (anybody) if it's in the wrong 
place.

Thanks,
Ben
