I made a pass over it a few years ago and managed to shorten it a fair
amount, but it clearly still needs attention.  This is one of our most
important and heavily referenced documents, and it would be nice if
newcomers didn't feel like they were being asked to read a version of
War and Peace written by Kafka before they can contribute.
