Sidenote: We don't get much feedback from users on documents, beyond a
very small number of bug reports, and a few private e-mails. I
personally don't have a clear picture of how the material is being used,
or how useful it is, because data points are too few. The only
generalisations I'd make are that the feedback items that I've seen are
typically from people with some level of Linux experience, and a fair
proportion seem to work in institutions (academia, research, military),
but that probably partly reflects the types of people most likely to
give feedback.
