Thanks for the feedback and encouragement. I'm glad this landed well as I was a bit uncertain about it. Also, thank you to Sigflup for proof-listening to it. If you're serious about having this linked to from other places then maybe we just need to post it to some forums, Reddit, FB, etc.

Should be a link on every distros desktop page.
