Announcing Updates at the Speakup Modified

Hank (and others),

	I wouldn't say this is difficult, after all the procedure is
spelled out pretty clearly.  Either it works or it doesn't.  It seems
that it worked pretty well for most who have commented.  I sure hope it
works cause I'll be getting to it soon.

	What I would say about that procedure, and one or two other
things in the howto, is that the reason for needing it and the purpose
of it aren't really described well.  The howto just says do this or
speakup won't work.  What is an initrd?  How is it involved in the boot
process?  Those questions aren't really answered.  Perhaps they don't
need to be answered in this sort of howto.  At a minimum, however, I
would like to see a link to a document that tells me more.

	The one other place I'd like to see a link to further
information is where the howto says that it isn't going to go into how
to get gnopernicus started.  That's fine, it doesn't really need to go
into that, but a link to a document that tells you where to go if you
want to do that would be very helpful.

John
