Compare:

http://www.gnu.org/software/hurd/hacking-guide/hhg.html
http://www.gnu.org/software/hurd/users-guide/using_gnuhurd.html

with /Documentation

I think we can do better. I have made several offers to compile
documentation that is forwarded to me in to a more user-friendly
format, but few people seem interested.
