Done. I'll amend xml-guide.xml next week though. |

|
| 10 |
x86 & amd64 arch specific files have been merged. |
| 11 |
hb-install-config.xml is now clean of foreign arches for all arches. |
| 12 |
Other common files still need to be "cleaned up". |
| 13 |
Feel free to file patches on bugs if you feel like trying it :) |

What this feature is meant for: |
| 17 |
1) define values that need to be changed at every release. Use values only, |
| 18 |
don't even put units in there. |
| 19 |
2) allow tests, usually on arch, to avoid foreign arches from common files. |
| 20 |
3) possibly merge arch-specific files that are very similar, like x86 & amd64 |
| 21 |
which share the same tools, terminology, partition schemes... |
| 22 |
4) possibly merge current & xxxx.y files as long as they are very similar |
| 23 |
*and* stay similar at least until the next release. |
| 24 |
FYI, xxxx.y docs are supposed to keep working as long as xxxx.y is the latest |
| 25 |
version, current handbooks keep moving along. |
| 26 |
|
| 27 |
What it is *not* meant for: |
| 28 |
Merge everything back into huge files full of conditionals. |
