fyi, we currently have plans to do both a "hello world" parcel, and a 
more extended real-worldish example: the "feeds" parcel, an update to 
the old zaobao tutorial. John is writing the "hello world" parcel and 
writeup, and Morgen is writing the "feeds" tutorial.

John may decide to extend his example as a way of getting his head 
around how to do cpia documentation, but that is not currently on our 
"must have" list.

The full plan of record for 0.6 documentation is here:
