Yes, thanks. The document kinda 'evolved' rather than being planned
and written, which I guess shows.

Yes please. If you do the initial conversion, and leave FIXMEs where
you think we're missing content (compared to other modules) I can
marshal the guys on the GCM mailing list and get some required content
for you.

If you work on a branch ('mallard-conversion'?), and push it to gnome
git I'll pull it into master before I do the next release.

Right, for this you probably want my brain bump here:
http://live.gnome.org/GnomeColorManager -- just search for the
"typical users" section.

Thanks!
