Would it much effort to keep the docs in synch as you go? I understand that this is in flux, but if someone were to look at this in the next few days, it would be nicer if they had accurate documentation.
I don't know what the exact shape of the new binfos will be.  I'd prefer
to write the docs once I know that.  Why would someone want to know now?
(a) they're using binfo stuff - better to liase with me so they can avoid
chasing a moving target. (b) they're changing binfo stuff -- better
to liase with me so we don't tangle each other up. (c) they're working
on some older version -- better pick up the correct docs for that
version.
