By "documentation" I don't simply mean "to write documentation".  That  
is one aspect, but just as important is the design of tools and  
procedures to write, access and display/print documentation.  For  
example, it would be interesting to have a tool to check, for each  
release, that the Gambit manual's examples are consistent with the  
interpreter and the compiler.  The file doc/checkdoc.scm is a first  
attempt at this, but it is more of a hack and lacks robustness.
