+  <note>
+    <para>The <xref linkend="installation" endterm="tinstallation"> chapter and some other chapters of this manual have been updated in August 2003, especially to take into account <ulink url="http://opie.handhelds.org/archive_2003-w31.html">&opie; 1.0 release</ulink>. But it is difficult for the &opie; team to keep up with &opie; and &opie; applications progress. Please indulge this manual occasional tardiness!</para>
+    <para>Please note, also, that the end of this guide (from late Chapter 2 on) is incomplete, when it comes to documenting applications. In particular, the following applications still have an empty page:
+      <emphasis>appearance2,
+      appskey,
+      calibrate,
+      citytime,
+      drawpad,
+      handwriting,
+      helpbrowser,
+      kjumpx,
+      language,
+      lightpower,
+      login,
+      multikey,
+      pickboard,
+      player2,
+      qpdf,
+      reader,
+      rotation,
+      sheet,
+      showimg,
+      sshkeys,
+      sysinfo,
+      tableviewer,</emphasis>
+      and <emphasis>write</emphasis>. Hopefully their interface is clear enough so you won't need documentation so much :-)
