1f954d79d5 Add a more detailed explanation about softupdates. I originally wrote
this as an article for a German-language newsgroup, and people felt
there's a lot of misconception about the topic around, so they urged
me to publish it.  Eventually, Matthias Schuendehuette submitted an
English translation of the article to me and asked me to review it.

Finally, Kirk graciously reviewed it, too.
