Log Message:
This is the snapshot from the Wiki. We probably want to just clean this up, because the Wiki has been unfrozen since this snapshot with content that is test3 specific (one instance I know of); the main issue are the <screen> blocks that need to be <code> ... it's a fairly simple 1,2 search and replace with a final clean-up by xmlformat. I'm going to try to get to this within the next 24 hours; we have to do many of the tasks outlined originally at http://people.redhat.com/kwade/fedora-docs/to-do-fc5-gold-notes.txt.
