State-Changed-Why: 
Arghh.. I just lost my extensive comments about this patch.  The short
of it is that this doesn't even validate (missing tags, etc..) and the
English is ambiguous.  I think every sentence needs revision.  Here is
the last bit of my previous comment that I was able to salvage from my
editor on freefall :

"The NEWCARD implementation for PC-card does not work for me." ..

Also, The cbb0 line might be better if enclosed in <errorname>.

I won't go on, but each entry needs extensive grammatical improvement
as well as some markup changes.

Maybe someone else can work with you to improve the English?

It would be nice to add these technical issues to the FAQ.

Thanks for your time spent writing this up.  Your contributions are
appreciated.
