I believe our focus should be on maintenance, in other words covering  
as much of the existing community docs as we can. The goal would be to  
mark howtos and tutorials as "1.0 ready". Merging howtos and tutorials  
where that is possible would be great.

I believe we should plan it as a remote activity, and if someone wants  
to help when in Cologne that would be great. Maybe a reasonable goal  
is to have five people commit eight hours each and if we could bumb  
that up a notch or two that would be fantastic.
