Why create a wiki when there is a fairly active forum for Yellowdog;
Id welcome any faq/how-to for the forum.  Especially since there are
many things that remain unaddressed on the forum-but I unfortunatly
dont have time to gather the necessary info from the posts there and
make some of it into how-to and for the stuff I do know I'm still
constrained by my time :-(    So I guess that this can be seen as a
formal invite for those of you who are not already members of it to
join and help the community there and here out.
