Last night I swear I read an e-mail that said something about waiting to
update the UG when the CR was published, but this is the only reference
to the UG still in my inbox. But I'll make my comment anyway just to
make sure it's clear.

Just a reminder, the wiki UG is intended to be the current
master/testing build install instructions. So feel free to update those
when you make any changes to how pulp runs. They won't be published to
pulpproject.org until the CR, so there's no risk of being in a situation
where the instructions you add/change don't apply to the CR.
