Dan, I went back and reviewed our old thread about D-Bus/HAL and forgot that you had already created the D-Bus-1.0.2 page and modified bootscript. Would you care to update the D-Bus page? The one you made (it is still available) looks good to me. If so, I'll start working on the separate packages that list D-Bus as a dependency and sort out which ones just need D-Bus itself (such as CUPS), and which ones need one or more bindings. Oh yeah, you may want to include a short sentence in the opening paragraph of the new D-Bus instructions that mentions that there is a separate page now for the bindings.
