Add a section at the end called COMMON ITEMS. This is where we'll put those questions that come up all the time (eg, how do I build a kernel). This is intended to be a very brief reminder for people that are basically clueful what the steps are to do these common things. What it lacks in verbosity it makes up in terseness.

Massive gut. We're not into 5.0 so remove all 4.x entries from this file and start over. Also note that we're in the traditional whack-a-ball kernel model/api reorg for 5.0 and that one needs to be extra careful about making sure models and kernels are in sync.

We've entered the tradtional post release dumping party.
Large kernel changes are being committed and are in the
works. It is important to keep the systems' klds and kernel
in sync as kernel interfaces and structures are changing.
Before reporting kernel panics, make sure that all modules
that you are loading are up to date.
