Besides being incomplete, it's completely outdated. It was done based
on 2.4.0 or 2.4.1, and lots of changes have been made since then. One
of the many changes is the VM fork between Linus and Alan branches
that happened around 2.4.9 IIRC.

I think that first of all we need to update this documentation. If you
feel like updating those old documentation, it would be even nicer
that writing new documents. Linus told today on lkml that 2.4.15 is
likely to be the start point to 2.5.x, so now we can update the
documentation on the site to have a long-term documentation for 2.4.x.

I'd be pleased to check your documentation. Unfortunately I am really
busy until the end of this semester (some assignments and finals at
the university) so I won't be able to help you writing documentation
while I can't get rid of those stuff (maybe beginning of
December). The bright side is that when this semester is over, I will
be finally working full-time on the project. :-)
