It would be most useful if you were to either create a new pamphlet file
(they are really just TeX files with <<foo>>= tags added). You can write
about anything you think is useful; possibly creating a developer's notes
document or some such. The whole idea of the pamphlet files is to capture
the knowledge so it survives, something we didn't do while I worked at IBM.
Since most of my effort is going into writing Makefiles at the moment 
the Makefile.pamphlet files contains most of the new documentation. However
every file in the system has the machinery wrapped around it to allow us
to document every detail from the large to the small. 

In fact, I'd encourage all of the developers (and users) to create 
pamphlet files.
