I'd like to do some documentation for the project

Zinf team,

I recently started using zinf in place of windows
media player and/or winamp.Windows Media was just too
buggy and invasive, while winamp is buggy and appears
to be leaking a lot of memory on some systems. My
girlfriend has until a couple weeks ago, been using
windows media player to avoid winamp's random crashing
and memory leaking her computer to death. After seeing
how well zinf worked on my machine, I recommended it
to her. A week later, it is still performing well on
her machine. It is slimmer than the competition and
without the useless fluff.

I just wanted to say good work guys and that I would
like to contribute some work to the project.

I would like to help you guys get some documentation
together. Its not glamorous work but someone has to do
it. I can't think of a better way to get familiar with
a  real world software project.

I am am presently finishing up a BS in computer
science (one class left in progress) and would like to
do some stuff in the OS community to help support it
in my free time both now and in the future. Such
endevors would also admittedly add something to my
resume beyond the sphere of academia. 

I have done what our professor considered
