[Ansteorra] Summary Page for Axeman A&S Competition

[Karla Norris]

Many thanks to Mistress Dyan, who embedded this in the EMAIL and sent it to me.  She is also the creator of this document.  It makes both a nice documentation for a smaller competition, but it makes a great summary if your documentation is longer and not likely to be read cover to cover by everyone at the A&S competition.  It also assures that you don't forget to think about those things that DO needed to be documented.
