  Documentation is items like tax forms, letters from schools confirming
  enrollment, etc., (often scanned in) that are attached to a Role as
  documentation related to that Role.

  The specific way that some properties and relations inherited from Work
  are used with a piece of Documentation are described below.

    work.title: The title of the Documentation (e.g. "Verification
      of Eligibility").

    work.author: The author of the Work referred to by this 
      relation is the Administrator (or Host) creating the
      Documentation.

    work.reviews: Annotations to the Documentation made by other
      Administrators.

    work.content: Summary of the contents of the 'attachment', or
      just an indication that the required documentation was 
      supplied but is not actually attached.
