Hi Mimi,

Hey Philippe. I've taken a pass at unifying the copy style. Please take another sweep at it if you have time.
Great job Mimi! This is waaay better! :)

I nit pick here and there:
- used Chandler Desktop consistently through the page so the reader can identify things easier
- used consistent punctuation
- compacted some statements
- fixed a bunch of puny layout issues
- used *bold* face for Chandler concepts only and only when introduced for the first time (instead of mix of concept, verbs...)

Now we're (almost) done with that (I left the *In Progress* line at the top intact, you may want to clean that up), I'm wondering what we should do with a "release note" (this is assigned to me https://bugzilla.osafoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9608). We talked about it without really converging on a decision. FYI, here's the list of sections that the FireFox 2.0 release notes (http://en.www.mozilla.com/en/firefox/2.0/releasenotes/) covers:

- What's New
- System Requirements
- Downloading
- Installing
- Uninstalling
- Extensions and Themes
- Known Issues
- Troubleshooting
- FAQ
- Contributed Builds
- Other Resources and Links

I think we have *all* of this in various pages we just edited *except* for a "What's New" page, the argument being that, pretty much everything is new so the Feature List should be enough...

... but not everything is that new. There are people who have been following us (though they might not be users). So, the question is: should we create such a release note page, which will basically contain only a "What's New" section (new wrt to Chandler Desktop 0.6) and a profusion of pointers for the rest?

I'd say "yes" but that's just my opinion.

Cheers,
- Philippe
