Doc Sprints

Doc sprints were intended to be virtual meetings amongst documentation committers and contributors, where discussion about the documentation project can be held, general PR busting, or other relevant stuff.

They were a really great idea. Someone (TM) could pick this up and run with it again

June 17, 2013 in #bsddocs on EFnet and at the Open Help Conference.

Updated agenda and action items are at http://openetherpad.org/p/junedocsprint.
