[testing] RC1 testing results

I've tested the RC1 and found no major issues. Some trivial things I saw were:

-- Tab not highlighting
 I'm not sure if this qualifies as a bug but I found it odd that
clicking on the "Versioned Docs" tab doesn't highlight that tab --
meaning you click on it and essentially lose context of where the
subtabs are.  This appears to be the case in both Firefox and IE. 
Perhaps it's always existed and just struck me as odd this time I do
not know.

-- FOR 537 
It does bug me that the docs regarding plugin sitemaps aren't
consistent with the release but I'm not sure if it's too late to fix
this or not?

-- Tools tab
This (XXE) was kind of strange.  Why is this particular xml editor
singled out?  I've never seen this tool before and it comes across (my
perception at least) as if it's endorsed by Forrest some how.  Maybe
I'm missing something but this seem weird to me.


Anyway, great job on the RC guys...  
Thank you,

that the issue had already been recorded. Thanks, i just scheduled that
issue for 0.8-dev.

Hmmm, Tim i don't see your original email. The archives don't show it either.

Would you either point me to it or send it again please.

This one is documented in FOR-209 -- sorry should have looked prior to
making my comments.

Thanks for the heads up Tim. I'll fix this, Tim reported it in plenty of 
time, I just forgot about it.

If someone can send a patch to the docs in the current trunk,
then we can add it before packing rc2 (about 17 hours remain).
Note: do 'svn update' first because the docs have moved to
xdocs/pluginDocs/plugins_0_70/

No favouritism or endorsement. Just that that tool has ways to
configure it to improve the editing of our xml docs. If anyone has
supporting bits-and-pieces for other tools, then we can add them too.
I added a note to xxe.xml to try to explain that.

Thanks for the testing and feedback.
