I'd love to see some changes to this document. I wrote that *way* back in the FC2 time frame and the Docs Project was still testing out its wings back then, so much so that it took until FC3 got out for the document to be published. Wasn't long before it was behind, as my time got eaten up by toolchain and other work. ;-) Matt, if you're interested in updating it, I'm happy to help by giving you any needed info on the tools and other niceties for FDP, as well as helping edit of course. -- Paul W.
