I find that it will explain things to those who already understand
most of the concepts. However, I felt as though I were being led
through a maze without knowing where we were headed. This suggests
that the concepts can be re-ordered in a manner that will help your
readers more, and then we can refactor further. (Yes, you can apply
Extreme Programming concepts to create Extreme Documentation,
including consultations with users, pair or group writing, frequent
refactoring, and more, as at FLOSSManuals.net.)

Who is your expected audience?
