    I'd encourage you to use my material.  I'm not sure if I'll have
time to adjust it to match a given format, and suspect that what time I
can commit to documentation is better used to either generate new docs,
or review possibly  old docs against significant subsystem changes.

    That said, feel free to ask me if you have any questions about my
material, or if there is some known deficiency in the set of documented
solutions (which may or may not reflect a deficiency in the available
solutions).
