Ted, thanks for your feedback.
Just kidding. ;)
I was not saying our documentation was totally fine. I simply was saying
that I felt that the getting started quickly section was a simple as you
could get and be able to generate a bitcode file. I do think our
documenation needs a serious overhaul in general, but those two sections I
pointed out were pretty easily to follow in my opinion. However, I
appreciate you pointing out another viewpoint and I do agree with many of
your suggestions. I hope to encorporate this into our documentation soon.
Thanks,
Tanya
