Yes, this needs to happen.  I've put it on the schedule for this week's
FESCo meeting to discuss and hopefully find a volunteer other than
myself to do the writing, but if no one else does, I'll do it.  Because
you're right, this is sorely needed and we're past the crunch which kept
us from doing it from the get-go
