Here is a first attempt.  I'm not tremendously happy with it, but it at
least gets something on the page to build on.  I was originally going to
copy/paste the relevant steps into the description of the incremental
process, but that seemed kind-of silly, so I instead just pointed to the
relevant steps of the "full" process, along with the deviations from those
steps.  That's a little more work for the reader, but maybe it isn't too
bad...  I plan to iterate on this patch some more.
