Nathan, I like that idea of the outline, perhaps since it involves moving things and creating new pages we should also have a goals and a deadline.

As far as what Kevin stated that there are both 4.6 and 4.8 releases out I certainly think we should focus on 4.8 for now because it will get us started in that cycle of Rawhide > Stable > Official Release notes. 4.6 we can always work on, however 4.8 will be what I am putting my attention on for now so we can get some awesome docs up.

Good stuff. Perhaps if we make a list on the wiki of all the topics we
want to cover in the guide, a kind of outline of the document structure,
then people can just fill in the sections as they go along?
