Haha - thanks.

Will add some DEP-3 of course.  I think the patches are mostly due to weird “between release”
snapshots of dependencies that the Docker team have been using.  It may have been a
mistake using notary 1.0 as that’s where the bulk of the patch comes from.  Maybe in the
future release versions of dependent libraries might be used instead of git snapshots.

Crud - it was Friday afternoon so there may be more typos than usual.  (-:
Was too excited to do a proper cleanup job before sending out the announcement.

Will take a look at all the other things you point out too - thanks for the feedback.
