In the Friends section, this needs updating, it refers to setting a name in 
step 3.

"This is referred to your node reference. First check to make sure that your 
myName doesn't say something like Node created around (number) if it does, 
please go back to step 3 in the last section. (Note: Some consider this 
naming of the nodes as a potential security risk, thus it is suggested to 
re-name the node as soon as possible.)"

Mostly it's useful if the user didn't use the wizard, or for exchanging 
Friends...

The FreenetConnections page doesn't mention opennet at all, it implies that 
you have to swap refs manually .. you want to fix this too?

The in-svn documentation tends to be out of date too. :|
