Baxley's approach is to define a general outline for styleguides, basically to 
compare web sites. I believe it is always a good idea to stay with proved 
methods, but of course we can do our own guideline. Actually it makes perfect 
sense because we do not describe a website where you design layout, style, and 
text separately. So I'm fine if you organize the section to fit your 
requirements, at least since I can easily follow your argumentation. Perhaps 
you could add some of your considerations to the basic approach page, just to 
make the difference traceable. I think it's interesting on a scientific level 
too.

I'm afraid that you will have two isolated section when you arrange the VDG 
below the presentation headline. If we violate the structure we could do it 
more effective. What's about:
1. Structure
1.1 Conceptual Model
1.1.1 Vision
1.1.2 Design vision and principles
1.1.3 Persona
...
or 
1.1 Conceptual Model
1.2 Design vision and principles
1.3 Task Flow

and 

3. Presentation
3.1. ... (whatever you think how to organize this section)

But I have difficulties to integrate the tools-part. Isn't it rather a best 
practice section at the style page? But don't hesitate to do your own thing. 
Panta rhei!

PS: Don't you want to merge the old presentation pages with your new one's? I 
guess no one understands the difference between color and color set (I know it 
was me who was in doubt about full integration).
