Indeed, this is why I suggested a *different* alias/address, to let the core
documentation team focus on handling the primary docs themselves. Undoubtedly,
email feedback will include spam, complaints, flames, support questions's, etc.

The culling and sorting can be managed by the online doc tenders, who can
pass the worthwhile comments to PHP-DOC folks...or, as it seems Rasmus is
suggesting, the annotation tenders could be working with jade/docbook/cvs/xml
themselves, or passing edits on to a jade/docbook/cvs/xml-savvy annotation
team member.
