i suggested something like this earlier, bu ti guess it got lost  
among my problems using babel for russian and a few other  
languages :) anyway: what about starting a small wiki just for  
documentation purposes? it might start out only as some kind of  
unordered FAQ list, which might evolve into and ordered and later  
even properly outlined dokumentation/howto/... what do you think? i  
have seen this work for many other projects, like this:

http://www.mikrocontroller.net/articles/AVR-GCC-Tutorial

it is only user-written and the result is pretty ok! upcoming  
important questions and their solutions might actually get compiled  
into the XDE (XetexDocumentationEffort :)) very quickly and also  
edited as XeTeX itself developes. Starting a new thread we might  
discuss a documentation outline as a starting point.

tnx,

martin

p.s.: my paper in moscow got highest mark and i'm back in berlin now  
- thanks for all your help :))
