	Great.  ;-(

	Can we at least get the website updated to clearly reflect what 
documentation *is* maintained by the NetBSD project and what is not, 
so that we don't waste time referring people to chapter and verse of 
"The NetBSD Guide" (which has all sorts of authoritative 
connotations), as opposed to "Well, Federico says X" (which I think 
would tend to carry a lot less weight, and rightly so)?
