Hi Giorgos,
Thanks for your comments I have merged all of them except the few below I have
questions about.

This does need better wording.. I can't come up with anything right now.

Well the period is at line 71, so I pushed the </para> down so I wouldn't go
over the 72 line rule.
Also I have encountered an undefined &man.ipnat.8
Regards,
Brad
