 docs           (Samba Documentation):
 --------------------------------------
-       Note in particular two files - INSTALL.txt and DIAGNOSIS.txt
-       You should also pay close attention to all the files with a
-       .txt extension.
 
-       Most problems can be solved by reference to the two files mentioned.
+       The Samba documentation for 1.9.17 has had some of its content
+       updated and a new structure has been put in place. However, since
+       this is all rather new the documentation format of previous
+       versions will remain in place. 
+
+       Note in particular two files - <your OS>_INSTALL.txt and DIAGNOSIS.txt
+       There is the potential for there to be many *INSTALL.txt files, one
+       for each OS that Samba supports. However we are moving all this into
+       the new structure. For now, most people will be using UNIX_INSTALL.txt.
+
+       You pay close attention to all the files with a
+       .txt extension. Most problems can be solved by reference to the 
+       two files mentioned.
+
+       The new documentation can be accessed starting from Samba-meta-FAQ.html,
+       in the docs/faq directory. This is incomplete, but to quote from the 
+       abstract, it:
+       
+       "contains overview information for the Samba suite of programs, 
+       a quick-start guide, and pointers to all other Samba documentation. 
+       Other FAQs exist for specific client and server issues, and HOWTO 
+       documents for more extended topics to do with Samba software."
