{Info: This pages constitutes a template for creating component descriptions. We have created Personas for relevant target audiences.

{Component Name}

Put an executive summary here : This documentation should not replace existing documentation, but be a first entry point. Elaborate on the DoW by being very concrete about the existing things (don't worry about 1:1 matching with the DoW at this point)

Do the summary in a multi-layer way, that can address diverse audience. Clearly imagine your audience: e.g. a Open Source Programmer with Computer Science, who works for a small NGO with considerable knowledge in c#, Ruby, ..., but expect also someone with few programming skills that wants to spend her private time to create some AT for someone they know if appropriate. Don't assume prior knowledge and use very simple English at least for the first paragraph.

Try to convince people to pick-up your component or contact you.
