Start and the release notes are a mess exactly because we are cramming
all these different, mostly unrelated functions into it- installation,
background information (which should mostly be in about/), release
notes, platform information, etc., etc. into it. Splitting out things
that aren't version dependent (like installation/download and
application information) and then linking to them will make it all
much cleaner, IMHO.
