Hi David,
	Thanks for your dedicated work on sheepdog. Yes, I think we should
provide at least a user guide in 'doc' directory along with source code.
I'll patch up a new file dedicated for it, though it might be incomplete
with biased viewpoint, then anyone can patch upon it for improvement.

	For official release, I guess Kazum will give a better and
authoritative answer.

Thanks,
Yuan
