Nah. I'll just point anyone who asks to the URL for the 5.1A docs. Let me
just get Ascend to publish my email address... ;-)

Seriously though, the docs for it in 5.1A are quite clear and
understandable. They could be moved wholesale into the 6.0.0 docs and fit
right in.

I guess the thought of attempting to explain the file naming convention
(let alone the upgrade process) as part of the section on AppleTalk routing
was too much to bear for TechDocs. Can't say I blame 'em. ;-)
