dia outline

[Kevin Breit <battery841 mypad com>]

Hey,
	Dan Mueth and myself have been working day and night trying to get
the Dia outline done.  So why am I showing this to yawls?  Because we're hoping
that we'll model future templates off of this.  So, here is the outline.  I
think we should all try to take a look at this since this is maybe a model
for the future templates.
Thanks
Kevin
