8318635721 Add Apps2go as *the* Motif offering to use. XiG's Motif is useless now. 
Add Metro Link's Accelerated X server.  It is IMHO a much nicer offering
than XiG's and supports more cards than XiG does.

d7b69d4c2d Typo in hyperlink for Bill Paul. 
It sure would be nice to be able to use the &a.foo entities in the FAQ.
That would make for some funky dependencies, though. Oh well.
