<!-- Coding standards for this document 

1.  Preface new or modified sections with a comment stating who
 modified it and when; please also use the "authorinitials" tag.

2.  There is no "two".

3.  Other than the GFDL, please use the "section" tag instead of "sect1", "sect2", etc.

4.  Use Entities to include files for new chapters in Bugzilla-Guide.sgml.

5.  Ensure all documents compile cleanly to HTML after modification.
  The errors "DTD Declaration not allowed here" and "DTDDECL catalog types not supported"
 are normal errors to be expected when compiling the whole guide.

6.  Try to index important terms wherever possible.

7.  Follow coding standards at http://www.linuxdoc.org.

8.  All tags should be lowercase (needsfix)

9.  Code being submitted for review should use the 
"review" tag. Documentation on this is available at 
http://www.linuxdoc.org/LDP/LDP-Author-Guide/tools-hints.html
 under section 4.9.4, "Making notes on the text while it's being written".

10.  Please use sensible spacing.  The comments at the very end of each Guide
 file define reasonable defaults for PSGML mode in EMACS.
  Double-indent tags, use double spacing whenever possible,
 try to avoid clutter and feel free to waste space in the code to make it more readable.

	  Took way too long to revise this for 2.12 release.
	  Updated FAQ to use qandaset tags instead of literallayout,
	  cleaned up administration section, added User Guide section,
	  miscellaneous FAQ updates and third-party integration information.
	  From this point on all new tags are lowercase in preparation for the
	  2.13 release of the Guide in XML format instead of SGML.

	  Things fixed this release: Elaborated on queryhelp interface, added FAQ regarding
	  moving bugs from one keyword to another, clarified possible problems with the Landfill
	  tutorial, fixed a boatload of typos and unclear sentence structures.  Incorporated the
	  README into the UNIX installation section, and changed the README to indicate the deprecated
	  status.  Things I know need work:  Used "simplelist" a lot, where I should have used
	  "procedure" to tag things.  Need to lowercase all tags to be XML compliant.
