We may already do so, but include the upgrade instructions, first time
install instructions and basic startup. Then bundle the docs as they
normally come in the tarball as a separate set (alone). A number of
other packages are done this way. If we want to include a be-all-end-all
we can do that too. Of course other doc formats/sets will also be
available.
