(Upstream LTSP manual)

[David Groos]

Thanks Jordan.  I went to http://ltsp.org/ and saw lots of links that  
went to, "download version 4.2" and 'how to install version 5 on  
dapper'.  Is this the right site?  I clicked around for 10 minutes  
and didn't find anything about LTSP 5.2.  I should bring these  
questions up on the LTSP irc as you mentioned and probably will to  
get further perspective, maybe next weekend.  Nonetheless I thought  
it's an important conversation for us all here as well to be aware of  
such things as a community.
