Draft description of Fluid Infusion

I am coming into this discussion a bit late, but would love to update  
the personas page with information I gathered researching personas  
for my JA-SIG uCamp presentation (which is posted at: http:// 
wiki.fluidproject.org/display/fluid/Presentations). I was going to  
add a task for updating the Personas page as well as generally  
reviewing the UX Toolkit, but see that Daphne already put a UX  
Toolkit task (which I'm assuming includes personas) into this  
iteration (which is assigned to Daphne in JIRA but Paul in the  
spreadsheet) so I'll try to put some time into that along with  
whichever one of them is working on it. :) If there are other folks  
in the community who would like to work on these tasks, let us know  
as we'd certainly welcome help.

And if anyone would like to take a crack at re-organizing the  
presentations page (http://wiki.fluidproject.org/display/fluid/ 
Presentations) by topic, that would probably make it a bit more  
usable. :)
