I'll be away from keyboard for the next week, so I'll share my rough
notes in advance.

In the template fdutils/fdmount_setuid, there are two instances of
s/set-user-id/set-user-ID/.  We don't yet have software for directly
manipulating people's ids. 

In the control file, the Homepage could be a real header now,

The introductory line for the list is repetitive, and could be
replaced by an "... including:" attached to the previous paragraph.
(Also, the list doesn't use the "preferred" style.)

   * superformat: formats high capacity disks of (up to 1992k
     for high density disks or up to 3984k for extra density
     disks)

Typo in the first line: s/of//.

Sources disagree over whether ISO 10994/2:1992 format is Extra
Density, Extra-high Density or Extended Density.  The most helpful 
thing to call them would probably be "normal floppies"!

   * fdmount: automatically mounts/unmounts disks when they are
     inserted/removed.

(Isn't that fdmountd?)

   * floppycontrol: configure the floppy driver

For consistency, "configures".
