I've given this a look-over, and only made a few minor updates.

- One update was to use a page style (style="task"). For example:

<page xmlns="http://projectmallard.org/1.0/"
      type="topic" style="task"
      id="net-chat-video">

- I used 'bzr mv' to change app-empathy to net-chat-empathy, made the
appropriate linking changes, and then rechecked to make sure there were no
broken links.

- I used a group="#last" element on the skype page to put it to the bottom
of the chat topic list. I did this because it's a proprietary application,
but others may disagree on this move. (I know it's a popular program . . .
). It's still not hard to find, though.


I liked how you used, "what's this?" to link to a possibly-unfamiliar term.
What do other people think about this? We don't normally use contractions,
but I feel ok with using one in those cases.

Nice job, though, Matthew. Thanks,

Jim
