Yeah, although I tend to think we should just mention distributors, and
leave off the version stuff. Will anyone maintain it? Probably not. Unless
we work out some clever way of doing it or getting the distributors involved
in that process. That's probably a different problem.

This ought to go on the start/ page, with lots of other rad 'getting into
GNOME' stuff, but we can get to that later. :-)

Thanks,
