Documentation recommendatation.

[Ken Roberts]

For what it's worth, I really appreciate the effort you documentation
guys are putting out.  It's harder than most people think to write good
documentation, and nobody on the docs teams are ever given proper credit
for that effort.  Spread the good mojo around to your fellows.

Thanks.
