There are bits and pieces here and there 
>(e.g. on Joe Armstrong's homepage) but no comprehensive collection that
I know of.

I actually forgot one source. Joe Armstrong's PhD thesis is a readable
introduction to these parts of Erlang (i.e. it covers much of the ground
and doesn't get bogged down in just a few details here and there, like
many other PhD theses has a tendency to.) Get it at:
