2006.0 Handbook

We're (at least I'm) going crazy trying to finish things up for the release. I was working a little too fast; accidentally committed the MIPS networked handbooks to /draft/2006.0/. Fortunately, this mistake was noticed and fox2mike fixed it. >_<. So I've slowed down a bit and made sure I'm triple-checking things a little slower, so I don't repeat the same error.

Other than that, I did a complete rewrite of the existing x86 networkless handbook. My intent is that it will be arch-neutral for future releases, so it can be used by as many other arches as possible without needing to alter much, if any of the content. This was actually faster to do than chopping out and piecing together large chunks of the existing handbook.

It still needs to be fleshed out in places, but the help screens on the x86 media itself are quite comprehensive, so I had to avoid duplicating that info. The end result (so far) is a ~450 line, 14-section document. I'll have to see how this turns out. In the mean time, back to work!
