Hi Will,

I recently got hired to handle LSST DM's documentation and user outreach. I'll be starting in August.

Needless to say, we know that documentation is sorely lacking, and from a user's perspective, is essentially non-existent. The docs will look entirely differently and will include topical guides/tutorials along with rich API documentation.

If you want to be a doc tester, or have specific concerns, you can email me or Frossie (but again, I won't start work until August).

Cheers,
Jonathan
