Hi all, I did not get any reply on my previous mail yet. Before I continue adding documentation to the Draft pages on the wiki, I would really appreciate to hear if I'm going in the right direction so far. I'm not looking for detailed, in-depth documentation reviews yet. I'd just like to hear if this is the kind of stuff you're looking for. Do I have enough details? Or too much details perhaps? Please let me know!
I will be on vacation for a week, starting tomorrow. I've planned to continue the documentation work after I return.
