In conjunction with Jason's offer - I'll convert the documentation
from whatever format it arrives in (plain text, HTML, Microsoft Word,
WordPerfect) into DocBook XML for the official documentation ("The
Book of Evergreen").

Oddly enough, I was thinking about the stalled state of the
documentation project early this morning and musing about ways to get
it going again - as well as wanting to follow up on the request for
guidance in terms of voice, writing style, etc. I'll try to get my
head out of i18n for a little while and return to the documentation
side for a few hours.
