_today_ Documentation/* is a mess of files. It would be good
to have the _same_ tree as the code has:

Do you have a proposal as to what specific files in that directory
should go where? Just basing it on the source tree will not get you
very far...

well, more or less the same but not _exactly_ the same ;-)

I already have a big patch against 2.6.15-rc2-git5:

[ http://perso.wanadoo.es/xose_vp/documentation_cleanup_01.diff.bz2 ]

main features:
- move all drivers_info into 'drivers'
- move all arch_info into 'arch'
- move all drivers_info from 'net' to 'drivers/net'

TODO:
- clean up the 'Documentation' root dir a bit more (easy)
- remove (easy) or update all INDEX files (tedious)
- move all info/text files from source code to 'Documentation' dir (tedious)
- verify all files are in the correct place (tedious)

enough for now.


-thanks-
