I like that idea.  Kinda like the playbooks we have for packaging and
5-a-day now.  The one for 5-a-day currently doesn't have specific
instructions on how to sign up/report your bugs/etc which means that
A) it is still ok to use and B) isn't really something we can hand out
to get people started easily.

Maybe we could write something up in a similar fashion for specific
instructions.  Have it use the same kind of logos/format so it looks
really nice when printed in color.  We (Michigan) handed these out at
our event at Penguicon last year for the packaging jam and they were a
big hit!
