Joseph,

Just an FYI, I asked Balaji to do his best to break things down into 
more managable hunks of code to make review easier.  In cases where we 
need a later patch (testcodes, docs, etc) we'll deal with the dependencies.

WRT doc standards precision -- agreed.  One of the major problems with 
the early language extensions was the lack of precision in their 
documentation.  I don't think this is going to be a big problem for 
Cilk+, but only time will tell.
