Awesome idea. I've got a local list for ARM that I've been tracking as I've
been building F-14 to track changes for F-15. I've been considering the best
location to document all this and that's just sorted all that problem out.
I'll spend some time over the next week or so merging the information I have
for ARM into the page.

Cheers,
Peter
