If you guys would like to get some detailed documentation going for dedicated
servers, feel free to use www.l4dwiki.org
I set it up a month or two ago and have just let the community run it. There's
already info about windows dedicated servers, but the more info the better.
It'd be nice if we could throw everything we've confirmed in there so we don't
have to weed through all of these emails to find something little.
