I read the headings on the page and read the first line of each section,
and had very little idea what they were talking about.  What exactly
would you like to cover?  It seems more like concurrency basics rather
than something we would have in our docs.  Perhaps we should like to
more outside documentation, but the URL you provided is so content-light
that I would not recommend it.
