Thanks for sending this.

This is an early draft, right?

I'll fix some typos etc. in it (patch attached) and add some whitespace.
Please see RD: in the patch for more questions/comments.

IMO it needs some changes to eliminate words like "we", "you",
and "your" (words that personify code).  Those words are OK
when talking about yourself.
