It's ok.  There may be very good bits there (I haven't had a chance to
read the entire document yet), so it's not very bad to suggest using it.

If there are parts that we could include in the official FreeBSD doc/
tree, that would be great too.

So, if anyone has used the aforementioned guide and found parts that are
not covered by the official docs, please mail either me directly or the
freebsd-doc list.

Agreed.  Updating the official documentation, where it lacks, seems like
a good thing.
