Vinton,

You probably saw my post.  I was offering to start up some docs.  I'm
still just watching this list to see what the feedback from that is.  I
have been trying to compile notes for myself on how to use MythTV and I
think I can turn that into a start of a 'userguide' document (which
wouldn't contain anything regarding installing).  I'm starting to think
that this guide would be quickly outdated as things change, but perhaps
only with certain modules.

Drop me a line and we can talk about it... I would love to work on it
with a group of people vs doing it all myself.
