Before you start, please kick me so we can discuss this. I'm doing the
same thing right now, so we shouldn't work on the same chapters, that'd
be a bad thing. ;).

I've fixed up most mimetype documentation (*_types.xml) and am currently
working on the element template explanation (building_*.xml). I'm doing
things in random order, just chapter by chapter, and will fix up the
introduction, preface etc. at the end.

That'd be really, really cool. Proper ALSA (mixer/output) support in
gnome-2.6 is a very good thing(tm).
