I had a quick look, what struck me is that we had a lot
of small issues pointed out that nobody is really interested in.
e.g.:

---
When you try to download the file, the PHP script does an "svn update" on the 
.tex files and then checks the date stamps to determine whether or not to 
update the PDF files and does so only when the tex file has changed.

Attila spotted a problem..
I hope you also limit the number of svn checks to one check every few minutes. 
Otherwise you make it possible to DoS your server.

And after that fix, thanks to all, we now seem to have our pdf documentation 
attended to. We now give you the very latest version and if it has been 
updated, we will even generate a new one - especially for you. What Service!

Nobody but the people managing the system or working on the documentation
are interested on how the system updates the pdfs. Even less people
are interested in that we had a potentialy DoSable bug in it.

We should keep these small fry out of the news letters, they are
well enough documented in the mailinglist archives.
