Really? I guess I'm out of the loop. I've been waiting for info on how to
incorporate the building of the docs with a given app. Is there a brief
how-to on this? Admittedly, I might have gotten trigger happy with the 'd'
key and deleted an email that explained this.

Well, as mentioned above, info on building docs would be a great help.
Also
I have noticed that a "legal.xml" has been added to the templates section,
and the templates link to this file. Is that how we should include the
legal stuff from now on, or just paste into a file and keep things as just
a *.xml file?

The docs have not been updated with new content or screenshots (that will come
after the UI freeze), but for my part, gdm, gdmconfig, and gnomeicu have been
xml'ized. I've worked on some applet docs, but have yet to commit them.

I should probably try this at some point.

One small thing I'm curious about. Is there a doc for the dock-applet? I can't
seem to find it on my machine. Is it mentioned somewhere in the user guide?
