GCI Documentation Tasks

Whiteknight:

I'm pretty sure I suggested this a few weeks back, but just in case: Revise/Re-write the below five articles, using Winxed for the source code examples (as opposed to PIR code examples).  The articles I suggest are,

1. "Exceptions" (see 'http://parrot.github.com/html/docs/user/pir/exceptions.pod.html')

2. "Programming Parrot -- Using objects" (see 'http://parrot.github.com/html/docs/user/pir/objects.pod.html')

3. "Programming Parrot -- PMCs " (see 'http://parrot.github.com/html/docs/user/pir/pmcs.pod.html')

4. "Array base class" (see 'http://parrot.github.com/html/docs/pmc/array.pod.html')
"Accessing C Structs from Parrot" (see 'http://parrot.github.com/html/docs/pmc/struct.pod.html')

5. "Parrot Subroutines" (see 'http://parrot.github.com/html/docs/pmc/subs.pod.html')

with an emphasis on items 1, 2 & 3 above.

I think each should take an industrious student two or three days to complete, depending on their familiarity with PIR and Winxed (and parrot, yada, yada :).

P.S. I certainly understand if these task prove unpopular, and that's okay.  If no-one takes 'em, I'll get to 'em in the next ..., oh, I don't know ..., several weeks or so.
