I won't be able to help out with documentation for a few days (probably until next week), as I am away at a meeting and have some other things to attend to in addition. 

If we push it to next week, I will be able to assist.

This is a major release with major API breakages, and I want to make sure the documentation actually reflects the codebase, so new users and new converts to 3.0 don't get confused.  I certainly was confused when i first moved over because there are a lot of significant changes that it's easy to forget after using it for a while and being as tied into the community as we all are.
