Change 8053 by rwatson@rwatson_tislabs on 2002/03/20 07:30:43

	Strengthen language in the introduction, and re-order things a
	little.  Refer to the document as a WIP rather than a brain dump,
	since some more editing and contributions have come since its
	inception as a brain dump.  Appeal to the reader for submissions.
