Sounds great, but remember, first and foremost, email. It's not a
replacement for "real" documentation, but it's vitally necessary. If
nothing else, it can be an announcement that some other document has
appeared or changed, what it's about and where (exactly) to find it.

Email is good, email is reliable, email instantly ensures that lots of
copies have been sent out and _someone_ is likely to keep any given item.

Nick.
