which is hardly "rotting", especially considering other changes made
during that time period.

Why do you think the doc issue was added in my recent declaration of
1.1 plans?

I think you are being slightly myopic about the timescales involved
here but it's a moot point since updates will happen soon anyway.

I think it's about 10x the amount of work needed to make a useful
contribution.
Now, as it happens, yes, your rant is effective: I'll clear the bug
tracker of doc changes within the next day or three.
But it really wouldn't be difficult for you to to make a docs-tla
branch and merge those changes yourself. Compile up a copy of systas
and `make html ps' in the appropriate directory. If you did that
work, I could certainly merge back from your branch.
