I think the time is now. We wouldn't have been able to put off really documenting this range of topics much longer, anyway. Has to happen before 1.0. And my experience is that knowledge-engineering excavations of this kind seldom work out unless there at least some pressure to ship in the background; it concentrates minds. > For the HOWTO, you should focus on one that is appropriate for your goals. > (Which goes back to figuring out what your goals are and telling us.) Then you should assume I weant the simplest possible, minimal-care, fire-and-forget configuration the most.

I'm thinking about having clockmaker do that edit. I think it's possible. -- <a href="http://www.catb.org/~esr/";>Eric S.
