Yeah, we're all out to get you.
Now that we have that out of the way, let me just say that the /CD/ page
was reportedly too crowded and too out of sync with the rest of the web
site, so I wrote /distrib/cd to complement the main page and the /distrib/
page.
In fact, I purposely didn't touch /CD/ because I was afraid you'd throw a
hissy fit if I did!
