1.  Correct FTP site for 4.0-stable snapshots and delete sentence
    fragment immediately following.
    [ not applicable to HEAD ]

2.  Add FDDI section to table of contents (see #5 below) and add
    one line of whitespace.

3.  In userland section, document csh->tcsh, more->less, and
    colorized ls.

4.  In Ethernet section, do:

        s/gigabit ethernet/Gigabit Ethernet/
        s/fast ethernet/Fast Ethernet/
        s/ethernet/Ethernet/

5.  Pull DEC DEFPA/DEFEA *FDDI* cards out of the *Ethernet* section
    and into their own second-level section.

6.  Add missing period in section header in ATM section.

7.  Tweak upgrading sectio with some new text, not sure if this is
    much better though.

8.  Add a blurb about the -stable mailing list.
    [ changed to -current list in HEAD ]
