+ them. (closes Bug#26948)
+ * Add an introductory "Scope" section which helps delineate what should
+ and should not be included in this Reference.
+ * Add discussion of the "experimental" distribution, culled from an email
+ from Guy Maor on debian-devel.
+ * Point to doc-debian's mailing list instructions where relevant.
+ * Made references to online documentation into URLs where possible.
+ * Little corrections here and there.
