The problem here is that as it stands DT is quite daunting to pick
up. My needs are pretty minimal yet I had to spend many hours sifting
through source, blogs, and Documentation/* to get something that more or
less worked. The bindings are generally well-documented, but there is no
"start here" document in the tree giving conventions and an overview of
how Linux in particular uses DT.

The closest thing I know of is Documentation/devicetree/usage-model.txt.
Perhaps this is where the language Wolfram suggested should be placed.

Cheers,
