Thanks.  Please send what you have and I'll see to incorporate it into
the documentation.  (Or it might be obsolete due to the next release.
I'm afraid I'm not completely sure about what will be in there and how
it'll look.)

One thing that Hans just mentioned in private conversation and which I
think is quite important: Users of Hunchentoot should not be
encouraged to write around methods for existing methods because that
means to rely on the fact that these methods currently don't have an
around method and won't have one in the future.  (There might even be
places in the documentation where I wasn't too clear about that.)  The
recommended way is always to subclass and then to write your own
primary methods (which eventually call call-next-method) and/or to
write around methods specializing on your own classes.
