  Modified files:
    en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/geom chapter.sgml 
  Log:
  Significant cleanup/rewrite of GEOM Striping section.
  
  * This chapter claims to be about striping, but talks about
    disk concatenation in some paragraphs.  Remove all references to
    concatenation, add a brief paragraph explaining what striping is and
    why it provides superior I/O performance through parallel I/O to
    multiple disks simultaneously.
  
  * Do not alternate between calling striping raid0 and raid1.
    Consistently refer to it as raid0, as raid1 is mirroring.
  
  * Cleanup / reorganize the example set of commands for creating a
    stripe of two ATA disks.  Wrap it in a DocBook <procedure> tag with
    individual <steps> to provide a title for this procedure and make the
    numbered steps very clear to follow without confusing verbiage and
    side tangents adding confusion.
  
  * Expand 'redundant array of inexpensive disks' in <acronym> tag for
    mouseover on first use of HTML output.
  
  * Remove some poorly worded, confusing, and contradictory sentences
    and paragraphs.
