I see how gplpv documentation on wiki is old and not complete

I use gplpv for over a year, the domU on server when i work is mainly with
windows
Here what i know for personal esperience if can help to update wiki:
For windows xp domU 0.10.x and 0.11.x is recommended use xen 3.4.1 or later
for all working, for older xen is recommended last 0.9.12
For windows 7 i see good only last 0.11.0.213, for install without problem
it need:
- bcdedit.exe /set TESTSIGNING ON
- reboot
- install gplpv
- reboot

Upgrade from 0.9.x to 0.10.x or 0.11.x:
- Do always backup for security (for now with the 0.11.213 no problem
encontered but with some previusly i had some problem, in some cases also
domU damaged)
- Start domU and execute 0.9 uninstall take from this:
http://www.meadowcourt.org/downloads/gplpv_uninstall_bat.zip (with one more
old i had problem, with this nothing)
- Reboot and check if is all ok, if all ok install the new gplpv
- Reboot and check if all is ok, check first to see cdrom, to save/restore
and working of shutdown monitor before use for production, is had some
problem on some 0.10.x not see immediately, if you do all the tests see
immediately if there are problems

Sorry for bad english
