I need help!

There is one urgent issue: should the chapter on asyncio go into section 17 (Concurrent Execution) or section 18 (Interprocess Communication and Networking)???  It would seem that event loops and coroutines fit better in section 17, while transports and protocols fit better in section 18. :-(  HELP!!

After that, I need help writing the docs. Most of it can probably be copy-pasted from PEP 3156, but I haven't written Python docs for a long time and I could use some help with how to structure it.  Ideally we'd find some volunteers who enjoy writing documentation to take over this project.

In the mean time, I have a patch that adds a stub with a reference to the PEP, so people can at least navigate to the docs without already knowing the PEP number.  It adds it to section 17 for now.
