Do you have one? I'd be happy to add one.

I don't really want to do this: it is not the scikit's learn goal to
maintain a library of documents. However, if you want to give us an
executive summary of the document (respecting the copyright, of course,
so copy and paste should be avoided). I'd be very happy to integrate it
to the documentation. Once again, I am not doing this myself right now
because I am not an expert of PLS, and I don't trust myself to do it
right. I would have to understand the usecases a bit more, which I
feasible, but takes time.

Your feedback is much appreciated,
