I totally agree. Having such a self-contained documentation is also the 
reason why OLPC Austria started writing the Activity Handbook in late 
2007 and it was also the motivation for the original Sugar Almanac by 
Faisal Anwar.

On the topic of job listings I think we need to enforce some kind of 
template of how these are listed. When I look at the open tasks on 
Amazon Mechanical Turk I can quickly and easily search and browse for 
things that might be of interest to me. That's currently not the case on 
sugarlabs.org (and laptop.org never managed to get it right either).

So as a first step a took the liberty to copy-paste from the feature 
template and create a quick'n'dirty Task template at 
http://wiki.sugarlabs.org/go/User:ChristophD/Tasks/Task_Template
