Don't modify the guide, just throw some random and structured winXX notes into a new doc,and we just add it to the guide as a new chapter. Then people start sending patches and polish it, like the rest of the chapters. The new 2.0 docs generation will have each OS specific notes in its own chapter. so if Alessandro or Randy volunteers (please say so), please ask winXX users to send you more winXX specific notes/scenarios and you (the volunteer) will be the official maintainer of the doc and send me the new doc and then the future patches. For 2.0 you will simply have a commit access and be able to maintain these by yourself and go wild. Does this sound good? On this note any volunteers to start working on OS specific notes for other OSs? (BSD/Solaris/AIX/HP-UX/Mac). _____________________________________________________________________ Stas Bekman JAm_pH -- Just Another mod_perl Hacker http://stason.org/ mod_perl Guide http://perl.apache.org/guide mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] http://ticketmaster.com http://apacheweek.com http://singlesheaven.com http://perl.apache.org http://perlmonth.com/
