Looks good.  Did you want to say something about testing the new
release by writing documentation with it?

The actual writing for the new User Guides will be using the wiki. But
perhaps the detailed walk-through of the product needed to document
every dialog, etc., helps with the test coverage?

Nice post. One question for clarification. Which Wiki? I think we all probably 
agree that it is the MWiki, and I think we can describe why to choose one vs 
the other. MWiki is for documentation that is permanent while CWiki is for 
planning that is transitory - we'll plan an action but it is not really 
documentation.

Regards,
Dave
