Quick Update on Gentoo 2008.0 Handbook

The 2008.0 handbooks are now linked to on the Gentoo main site, though still marked as draft while 2008.0 is in beta. There were several changes to the handbook in the last week and I'll integrate these over the next two to three days. Until then not all links point towards the 2008.0 handbook in German but if you can't wait, click here.
