Hey guys, Thanks so much for the feedback. If you think it would be valuable, let's create it.
Maybe the best way to get something relevant is to allow you both write it. If you agree, I can create an empty page and let you write the content. It's pretty cool and easy using Apache CMS cause you can do it in an anonymous manner (no need to be a committer). On top of any page, you have a pen you can use to edit a page.
