The intention of 'Legacy Documentation' chapter is to keep the old documents that not yet sorted into the new outline, and encourage new documents to be integrated in the new outline from the beginning. However, the new outline will take some more time to be completed. It has started about two years ago, and still many parts are not yet written. Also, there is no clear guidline for placing each document for all cases, for not only the 'legacy' documents, but also for new documents. For example, memory allocation profiling document has been added to the bottom of the new outline. Apparently it was not following some well-defined guideliens or a result of a discussion. Furthermore, the title ("legacy") makes people feel the documents on the chapter might be outdated or not actively maintained. Rename 'Legacy Documentation' to 'Unsorted Documentation' and remove the description saying it is for 'older' documents. After this change, new documents that not clear enough where it should be placed on the new outline can be added on the chapter while well-defined guidelines or discussion for the new outline is made.
