I am going through the document from top to bottom right now. Basically, 
whatever is done has proper headings (I use 1-2-3-4 from the headings 
functionality in Google Docs) and is normally written out. So it is 
quite easy to see where I am right now but to make it even more clear I 
will insert a red line. Any section that I have 'finished' but that 
still needs work (as in addition of apps) I will mark yellow. The whole 
text which is finished needs review for english language use so that is 
something you can do easily.

Those still adding things: thanks! Everything which is below the RED 
line can still be added to; everything that is above it - mark additions 
YELLOW!

@everyone who doesn't know where the feature guide is: HERE!
