Ok, I've finished a top-to-bottom review of the reference, and cleaned
up quite a bit.  I think we have all of the new features documented
finally, so that part is done.  The one section I skipped was the
Rexxutil functions, so if anybody wants to review that, it would be
great.  I think at a minimum, someone needs to go through and make
sure we are documenting the functions that are there (and only the
functions that are there!).

I'm now working on the rexxpg, doing a similar top-to-bottom review.
I'm finding it needs a lot of updates.  For one thing, it still refers
to "Object Rexx" everywhere.  It's also assumes Windows in many, many
places, so I'm going to try to make it more platform agnostic.  I'm
also finding it talks about things that are just flat-out wrong, which
is a little disturbing.  Anyway, this review is long overdue, so that
will be keeping me busy for the next week.  I also have a couple of
sections of the API ref I need to complete, but haven't decided how I
want to write them yet.

Given the amount of doc work that seems to be required yet, I think we
really should focus some attention on getting a "kick-the-tires" alpha
download available.  I've got a 64-bit Linux version available, but
I'm not sure how to build the RPM (or even if it will build on this
platform).
