49c64cab8f Add an additional section with a task for interested contributors; 
"Work through the PR database".

f85b87db80 Refer to the DE450 ethernet card at the same time as the DE435. Apparently 
the 435 is no longer made, the 450 supercedes it.  Keep the references to
the 435 around though, so that potential users who have one aren't put off.

f8c9ffdd22 A new chapter, explaining how to translate the documentation 
to other languages.  Well, not exactly, this is more of a
FAQ than a proper tutorial.  But (1) it gets it out of the

months, (2) it gets it better publicised than it has been,
and (3) it shows anyone that wants to see how to markup a
