-OVERVIEW
+(See the docs/specifications directory for more details.)
 
 There are three layers: the key-value store, the filesystem, and the
 application.
hunk ./docs/architecture.txt 44
 filesystem (see the RelatedProjects page of the wiki for a list).
 
 
-THE KEY-VALUE STORE
+== The Key-Value Store ==
 
 The key-value store is implemented by a grid of Tahoe-LAFS storage servers --
 user-space processes. Tahoe-LAFS storage clients communicate with the storage
hunk ./docs/architecture.txt 77
 server to tell a new client about all the others.
 
 
-FILE ENCODING
+== File Encoding ==
 
 When a client stores a file on the grid, it first encrypts the file. It then
 breaks the encrypted file into small segments, in order to reduce the memory
hunk ./docs/architecture.txt 118
 into plaintext, then emit the plaintext bytes to the output target.
 
 
-CAPABILITIES
+== Capabilities ==
 
 Capabilities to immutable files represent a specific set of bytes. Think of
 it like a hash function: you feed in a bunch of bytes, and you get out a
hunk ./docs/architecture.txt 150
 key-value layer.
 
 
-SERVER SELECTION
+== Server Selection ==
 
 When a file is uploaded, the encoded shares are sent to other nodes. But to
 which ones? The "server selection" algorithm is used to make this choice.
hunk ./docs/architecture.txt 231
   long-term connections, at the expense of complexity and latency.
 
 
-SWARMING DOWNLOAD, TRICKLING UPLOAD
+== Swarming Download, Trickling Upload ==
 
 Because the shares being downloaded are distributed across a large number of
 nodes, the download process will pull from many of them at the same time. The
hunk ./docs/architecture.txt 262
 See "helper.txt" for details about the upload helper.
 
 
-THE FILESYSTEM LAYER
+== The Filesystem Layer ==
 
 The "filesystem" layer is responsible for mapping human-meaningful pathnames
 (directories and filenames) to pieces of data. The actual bytes inside these
hunk ./docs/architecture.txt 292
 that are globally visible.
 
 
-LEASES, REFRESHING, GARBAGE COLLECTION
+== Leases, Refreshing, Garbage Collection ==
 
 When a file or directory in the virtual filesystem is no longer referenced,
 the space that its shares occupied on each storage server can be freed,
hunk ./docs/architecture.txt 313
 garbage collection.
 
 
-FILE REPAIRER
+== File Repairer ==
 
 Shares may go away because the storage server hosting them has suffered a
 failure: either temporary downtime (affecting availability of the file), or a
hunk ./docs/architecture.txt 370
   in client behavior.
 
 
-SECURITY
+== Security ==
 
 The design goal for this project is that an attacker may be able to deny
 service (i.e. prevent you from recovering a file that was uploaded earlier)
hunk ./docs/architecture.txt 434
 capabilities).
 
 
-RELIABILITY
+== Reliability ==
 
 File encoding and peer-node selection parameters can be adjusted to achieve
 different goals. Each choice results in a number of properties; there are

 It is not called "installing" because that implies that it is going to change the configuration of your operating system. It is not called "building" because that implies that you need developer tools like a compiler. Also I added a stern warning against looking at the "InstallDetails" wiki page, which I have renamed to "AdvancedInstall".

 These edits were suggested by my watching over Jake Appelbaum's shoulder as he completely ignored/skipped/missed install.html and also as he decided that debian.txt wouldn't help him with basic installation. Then I threw in a few docs edits that have been sitting around in my sandbox asking to be committed for months.
