I'd LOVE to get a lot of my knowledge out there for people to get up
to speed with the system. The problem is that it's so time
consuming, and I really have a lot of other priorities to get on
with. (I admin the web site, I'm writing code, fixing bugs, etc).
OTOH, I enjoy discussing these things with people. If you think you
can come up with an effective way to help transpose that into
documentation, then I'm all for it. :-)
