I would say that it would be good if the installation instructions page 
could be updated to at least be correct.  There are simple things like 
stating 'bunzip' when it is now 'bunzip2'.  I know this is obvious for 
people that have been doing it, but it's not obvious to anyone getting into 
it.  There are a lot of problems like this in the sites in general, too 
much assumption is made and very little explanation.
