Hello Jeremy,
I have put the first testing CD with the 6.3 book in the download area.
This leaves all 6.2 and earlier CDs as old and unsupported. However,
there are a few places where the site mentions a stable CD (that doesn't
exist). I have attached a diff, is it OK to apply?
Also, someone has to do something with the really old news item about
the 6.2-3 release, and update documentation.html.
