Guys,

This isn't a very important point, but I've noticed some cases of people
using XML documentation snippets like this:

	// <summary>
	//	This class encrypts with ROT13.  Twice.
	// </summary>

Don't forget, XML documentation comments start with THREE slashes, not two.

	/// <summary>
	///	...
	/// </summary>
