I think we might be able to improve matters some by condolidating all this
documentation in a *single* *publicly-available* location.  It is no longer
good enough to simply make this stuff available in the distribution.  There
are multiple classes of majordomo users out there -- people who set up and
maintain the majordomo software itself, people who administer lists under 
majordomo, and people who subscribe to lists under majordomo -- and to my
way of thinking these people's needs aren't really being met by the
documentation.

Lest anyone accuse me of just whining, I'm willing to discuss and help
implement possible solutions to this problem, if there's any interest among
the folks on majordomo-workers.
