We sent an email to bsmerdberg about what we've currently have worked on so far for this project. Dave Humphrey helped us send another email dria, bsmedberg, and sheppy about our project. We're currently waiting for their response. Hopefully they will tell us what they want in the XULRunner guide.
Colin and I have started testing the stable version of XULRunner which is 1.8.0.4. I'm mainly responsible for the Linux side of XULRunnre while as Colin is responsible for Windows. We've installed XULRunner and tried installing a few XULRunner application. We also put the information in the XULRunner Guide outline.

Moved the outline to have its own heading. This way when changes are needed to be made, its done on the outline rather than keep updating the project news section.
