Hi Jack, 

I've got notes on the areas below. Is this appropriate? 

As with the hardware, only some of this is Freedombox information for 
http://wiki.debian.org/FreedomBox. 

You can find all this stuff and more on forums like these, but the info does 
take a fair bit of filtering, unfortunately.
