The information in there is old and seems to focus on IPSec where we also now support things like OpenVPN, openconnect, vpnc, and PPTP.  I'd really appreciate some help with this.  If anyone would like to write, edit, or review what's there please let me know.

Everything is in a FedoraHosted git[0] repo.  Take a look at the master branch, specifically the file en-US/VPN.xml.  It currently contains a lot of information regarding IPSec but it's all old and should probably be removed.  It's also missing any mention of OpenVPN or any other VPN solution.
