It's worth noting that these are not "the" docs.  I didn't write or
review them.  I don't have any control over zodb.org. I have no idea
how to comment on the docs. (I could possibly find out, but I don't have time
to work that hard.)

This is problematic.  I didn't write the docs and the docs
are not part of the software.  I can't do anything about this
I don't know if anyone who can deal with bugs has any control
over zodb.org.
