This is my first time to package a python app with cdbs, so yes I was
focused on the technical aspects of the package and overlooked parts of
the administrative aspect (informative documentation). The current
state of quickplays documentation IMHO would not provide for an
enjoyable end user experience and needs to be improved. So might as
well correct it now before we get any further in the process =).
Thank you for the offer. I will hopefully take you up on it in the near
future =)
