Open Week - another docs day?

[Augustina Blair]

Any day, any time is fine for me, I'm not picky :)

I'll be presenting about the steps to take before actually writing the
documentation. The presentation will end with something like "when you can
start writing".

For a title, Getting Started with Documentation: Understanding what you're
going to write about before you start writing (something like that feel free
to reword it).
