Thanks for the great links!  Alas, I fear that what we have now is going to
be it for 5.0
but there is always another release...  Although now that I think of it,
maybe I should
just add these links to what I have?  Perhaps I should wait until I read
them.

My experience with "soft" docs like this is that you have to start with
something, and
then over time, we see what else is required and we enrich it.

I'm also thinking about having a "Hardware Support" section in the Release
Notes
that we can point to from the Planning Guide.  Right now, we have a number
of
Fixed and Known issues about specific hardware.  Those are constantly
changing
so belong in the Release Notes but, if we had them all in one section, we
could link
to it from the other docs and people could easily access the current
material.
