(ET) Documentation

["Darryl McMahon" <darryl econogics com>]

A while ago, if Bill really was packing up shop, I agreed to gather up 
some 
information regarding FAQs.  Well, the document has developed a mind of 
its own, 
and has become "Care and Feeding of Venerable Electric Tractors".  This is 
very 
much a work in progress, but I think the flavour is becoming sufficiently 
distinct 
to let folks have a first look and perhaps guide its future development.

It is very much a work in progress, and in its early stages.  Lots of HTML 
coding 
yet to be done.  I will be going over a large number of e-mails I have 
collected 
from this list over the years to put meat on the present skeleton.  Also 
it is my 
intention to add references to specific suppliers and part numbers where 
appropriate throughout the document.  Dean and John, if you want to send 
me 
information to include, that would be great.  If not, please provide URLs 
where I 
can link to the information you will be generating.

If you think something is missing from the high-level framework, please 
let me know 
(also any errors).  Votes for priorities may be considered.  Contributions 
welcome 
(though as I said, I will be skimming past e-mails for content).

I hope you find this approach to have value.  If not, please let me know 
that too - 
I can be spending my time on other things.

The document can be viewed at http://www.econogics.com/ev/carevets.htm

I would like to see us explore an amicable arrangement with Bill regarding 
original 
documentation for GE, Wheel Horse, New Idea and whatever else he has.  
Simpler and 
easier all around.  If that does not work out, for whatever reason, then 
let's 
explore other options.  (I'm not volunteering.)
