Since this is a community-developed kernel, there is no "official"
documentation per se; anyone is welcome to write whatever documentation
they care to, and if it's good enough, others will recommend it.
The only true authority is the source code, but not everyone has the
skill to grok kernel code quickly.
If you are interested, I am starting to review and update the
Documentation directory - any help would be greatly appreciated.
Jim
