I just installed this and tried it out - it seems to work fine for me. I'm
on RH6.2, so I guess we expected it to work here.

I just upgraded the Handbook and templates and propagated the changes to
the relevant web pages.  I have not yet changed the discussion in the
Handbook to reflect this however.

I just noticed that the &hellips and &mdash are working properly now:)  Is
this something new you fixed in the stylesheet?  It looks like somebody
(boc?) also fixed the stylesheet-images/ recently, so I think the docs
should actually be rendering properly now.
