My belief is that there are some libraries out there that would consider
moving to Evergreen on their own if there was just a bit more documentation
for them to rely upon, especially to get started.

So, the target audience is the library with a sharp SysAdmin type person
who is thinking about Evergreen but who doesn't have a ton of time to spend
figuring out how to get started.  But if he or she could get started more
easily, would quickly learn that Evergreen is a very viable alternative for
their library and will eventually take the ball and run with it at their
organization.  Meaning they will set up a demo for their libraries to show
them what can be done with Evergreen and start talking to them about
options for migrating off their system to Evergreen (going it along,
contracting with someone, etc).
