Documenting it would mean semi-freezing the interface, and since the
interface is just slush and has already changed (in quotient.formless
and quotient.web.webform), I don't think it's a great idea. One thing
people need to understand about woven is that it is still in heavy
development -- although development has slowed lately because it has
become stable enough to use, there are still large refactorings I plan
on undertaking which will vastly simplify the way woven works. While I
will attempt to preserve backwards compatibility because I have a large
codebase that needs it, I reserve the right to change interfaces
because they are completely broken -- I think it'll be better in the
long run to have well-designed interfaces than to have backwards
compatibility with broken ones.
The best way to learn about woven is to try to use it, and to ask
questions on #twisted.
