<p>The &os; Documentation Project Primer had not changed at the
same rate as the documents themselves. Some sections were
outdated, others were wordy and confusing, while information on
new changes to the documentation were not described at all. In
July, Warren gave the entire FDP Primer a fairly intense edit
for simplicity and clarity. Chapters and sections were moved
into a more logical order, and information was updated to be a
better guide to the current state. Markup examples were added
and revised. Style guidelines were also extended and updated.
The Primer is now far more consistent and usable. As always,
there is still room for improvement, and additions or
corrections are encouraged.</p>
