527e283a19 De-emphasize the sites list - move it up, but show it inline instead
of the bulleted form. It just looks better - the empty-ish vertical
list just looks wrong imho. And stop calling it the 'largest sites'.

a2018a60a6 Improve the introduction chapter, to fix the overall structure
of that part.

The diff is a bit large due to changed indentation, but it's mostly about
moving the <sect2> a bit further down and shortening the introduction part.

b35a30a7fe Try to bring the handbook introduction a little more up to date.
I think the majority of this chapter likely needs to be completely
rewritten, and hope to see it done soon.  However, in the mean time,
at least try to make the handbook introduction a little more
current.
