Steven Peck, head of the Drupal documentation team has suggested a redesign. I am going to suggest that we attempt to implement this redesign using the new book module in Drupal 6 in Barcelona. Let me know if you are interested in doing this either during the session or remotely.

Theme developers guide *
-Theming overview - introduce things. -
- Engines overview engines with a lean towards phptemplate
-
I get fuzzy on the details after this part. There aare differences
between 4.7-5.0 and 6.0. dvessel is actually writing theme docs for
D6 right now separately so we have a start right there for some what
versioned docs. How to integrate them in a sane manner still needs
some thought and response. -
Developing for Drupal *
Currently I am not planning on touching this yet. I do have some
ideas on it but just re-organizing two and integrating a third is
enough initial scope. There are two main areas in this book though.
One is module development, the other is drupal.org project use and
maintenance of projects/cvs/etc. So it may be good to give it some
thought for later. -
Drupal Site Resources * or some such inclusive title.
This pulls in the stuff that was in About Drupal.
The About Drupal documentation goes in.
