I wouldn't suggest duplicating the documentation though.  Perhaps
linking to what's already out there would be good.  I don't know about
documentation for Pier and Magritte, but I remember running across
something for Monticello (just Google for them).

Also, at my day job there has been a lot of hype about a plugin to
Eclipse called Mylar.  It's a way of looking at task-based changes in
the environment, committing task-based changes, etc.  All I could
think of while looking at it was "Wow, we've had that in Smalltalk for
years.  Can anyone say ChangeSet?".  Monticello takes that to the next
level, but perhaps a short section on using ChangeSets would be good
(with the appropriate screenshots as well of course).

I will add a link to this tutorial today, to both the testing and the main site.
