There are a handful of phases involved ... and they're not actually linear/sequential, they're more combined + iterative. Which means that, even if a section looks "done" it's actually not. They will be tuned over and over 馃檪 So, here are the "phases":
Phase I
Move useful content out of existing old docs.lfe.io site
Update that content for LFE 2.0
Add redirects for moved content from docs.lfe.io to cnbbooks.github.io/lfe-manual/current (note that when officially published, these will redirect further to lfe.io/books/chineual)
Phase II
Examine each section of the Lisp Machine Manual and carry as much of its good qualities over to the LFE Machine Manual
Key differences include more information about usage or links to online resources that cover usage in more detail
Explore the possibility of scraping / parsing Existing Erlang STDLIB and ERTS Reference Manuals and the Erlang User Guide ... but only if a good user experience can be created; otherwise, just link out to these, as applicable
Phase III
Examine three key Erlang books for content + topics (Erlang Programming, LYSE, Designing for Scalability)
Carry these over for use in the Chineual chapters
There are some pre-existing LFE examples and articles which may be pulled in for this as well (blog posts, Rosetta Code, various LFE orgs & repos, etc.)
Phase IV
Lastly, some of the most competent, useful, and even compelling online manuals / books being produced right now are for Rust
Examine those Rust resources for inspiration (content to cover, organisation of said content, etc.)
