   That would be a good spot to link to the AutoDoc system.  I ought to
have some preliminary stuff up today.  I reworked the web page to be the
start page so that there is a common theme.

   Rigth now it just has the links we have on the home page.  I would
think that would be best, and put the links to firewatcher and ect.
there.  That way when other web sites change, we don't break links on
our CDs.

   How about a web page showing the mini czars of different sections.
This would also help in communication.  Categories like "Installation
modifications," "Added packages," "Documentation," "Admin scripts and
tools."  Others too, this is just a first draft.  That way, when I need
a script run at install to copy my AutoDocs, I e-mail the Install Mod
guy directly.  We just send the final change to you, not the discussion.

   As I am doing AutoDocs, I could try and clean up the web page.  It
would be a second priority, but it would be on the plate.
