As I mentioned elsewhere in these recent discussions, I'd be willing to 
take the lead on doing this if two or three other people would be 
willing to commit to writing with me on it until we get it done with a 
deadline of the next two months. And they need to be people who are 
willing to think of this not as documentation and not think like 
documentation writers.

But an outline is not the starting point for doing this. An outline 
would come after a group of people discussed the various rhetorical 
strategies for what the About section needs to do and figured out what 
needs to go in it.
