Really, my goal was to actually write a document that told the average user
how to get Horde, Imp and Turba, plus all of their external binaries up and
running quickly. If you want to remove this document as the INSTALL document
as write something different, and just post my document as a "Quick Start"
or "Installation Notes" document available from you FAQ page or whatever
that's fine. Like I said I just want to help out. I'd just hate to see the
notes I took on installing the external binaries go to waste.
