For what it is worth we are starting to try and update our userguide.
If you want to tinker in the context of what we already have written you 
can do this:

	bk clone bk://bk.bkbits.net/userguide
	cd userguide
	bk edit
	make
	then point your browser at file:///$PWD/tmp/index.html

The input to the web site reflects my age, it looks like groff -ms input,
there is a webroff script that translates to awful (no css) html; we need
to fix that.

If you decide that you'd rather hack on that you are welcome to do so and
we'll try and incorporate your changes.  

I'm very happy to see you hacking on any sort of BK docs, that's fantastic,
so do whatever makes you more productive.  If you hack on the userguide,
however, it makes it easier for us to incorporate that stuff and put up 
on the website.  But either way is great, thanks!
