The documentation is getting bit-rotted outside of new specs of features being
implemented. I had hoped we'd get more community contributions by splitting the
docs out the of the codebase, but that hasn't happened. At this point i'm hoping
to take have the team work on the docs at the end of the cycle b4 the final
release. Some documentation cleanup days before then do sound good.
