+<PRE>A post by jquelin reminded me of something that would be nice to see, for 
+potential contributors to Mageia code (like myself).
+
+It would be useful to have brief documentation for Mageia perl routines, which 
+would describe the inputs required (function, range of values, etc) and the 
+purpose of each routine.
+This would be good to have in a separate document, so (potential) hackers could 
+have an overview of the various routines and their functions.  I know that with 
+time one can learn this, but it would provide a quickstart for those who would 
+like to contribute to the drak* tools for example.  A simple text file would 
+suffice, since that would give the flexibility to put it wherever wanted on the 
+screen while examining other perl code which uses these routines.
+
+I'm talking about a concise programmer's guide, and not something suitable for 
+end-users.  And not something describing the perl language itself, for which 
+there are plenty of references.
+
+This could be done with python as well.  I mention perl since that is what most 
+of the drak* tools are written in.
