The doc project many times accepts documents which need marked up, 
reformatted, has alot of whitespace (I myself have a document that needs 
marked up for someone, its just the time constrant and figuring out 
where to put it).  But this isn't the current topic, the topic at hand 
is more of a space after periods thing...

I am in no way saying you cannot submit documentation, Gary just asked 
nicely if you could use two spaces instead of one to make things easier, 
  and you have taken minor offence, if you feel that only one space is 
needed, then we can add the extra space later.
