[svn-r673] Changes since 19980908

----------------------

./COPYING
	Reformatted as text instead of C.  Removed zlib crew from the
	list of contributors since no zlib code is actually in the
	hdf5 library.

./INSTALL
./INSTALL.ascired
./MANIFEST
	Minor updates for Beta release including version number
	change.

./INSTALL_MAINT
	Added information about making a release.

./RELEASE
	Updated function list based on public header files.

./bin/checkposix
	Got rid of complaints about some obvious things.

./doc/html/H5.api.html
./doc/html/RM_H5F.html
./src/H5F.c
./src/H5Fpublic.h
./test/tfile.c
	Changed H5Fget_create_template() and H5Fget_access_template()
	to H5Fget_create_plist() and H5Fget_access_plist() since that
	conforms better to lots of other names.

./doc/html/H5.api.html
./doc/html/H5.sample_code.html
./doc/html/RM_H5F.html

./doc/html/Ragged.html	   [NEW]
	Documentation for ragged arrays.

./src/H5Iprivate.h
./src/H5Ipublic.h
./src/H5I.c
	Changed the scope of some symbols to be more local.
