Ken,
I think that's a great idea. And, assuming he went along, it seems it
might even free up Tomasz for improving AB rather than AB
documentation. 

Although AB isn't "open source", some aspects of it are comparable:
users can extend it in various ways (.dlls), users contribute and
share common AFL, etc. Since documentation is a pretty thankless job,
it seems only fair we all share in it too :-}.

I'll be interested in what others think.

Dan
