Error message text for netError.dtd

Firefox 1.5 will feature user-friendly error messages to help users when they encounter various network errors that result in pages not loading. Due to some overlap and checkin depedencies between the rendering of the error messages (bug 280190), and the error message text (bug 301208) this wiki is being used to synchronize the error text changes until it's time to patch the file itself.

You can see a preview of the error message rendering here.

The latest proposed patch to the netError.dtd file is here.
