I was thinking more about the main "www.linuxcnc.org" site.  IMHO, your
excellent new instructions should be linked in at least the following
locations:

* Front page (with all the other "how to ..." links)

* Documentation page under Developer Information

* Community page under Developers

...and probably some more I'm not thinking of.

The locations above are the places I looked at first as a new user
trying to figure out how to build and contribute to LinuxCNC.  Right or
wrong, I didn't dive directly into the wiki, and I have a personal
distaste for forums (preferring the mailing lists, which is also what's
listed under "how to communicate with the developers", along with IRC).

Thanks!  Sorry for not sending a patch...  ;)
