[documentation] D7 core docs sprint #1

[adept digital evolution]

Thanks Addi, i just signed up for both sprints! (now i just have to 
learn All About IRC if I have time beforehand)

Further, I would LOVE to help on the install instructions for 7.

Downloading 7.x-dev now. It will take me a bit to ramp up since I don't 
have a test site set up. But I should get to this by tomorrow.
