To be precise -- flood has no real docs. This is why few example configurations 
use real hosts. You don't have real docs, but have a quick look at example 
config, and you know all about flood (well... almost ;)

If majority of people think that such thing suck, then let it be. However let 
me finish real (xml based that is) flood docs first. Then we can make a bunch 
of scripts of all kinds (php, jsp, asp, whatever) that demonstrate all nifty 
flood features. Since we have baseurl support in flood it would be trivial for 
people to prepare test enviroment for themselves. Does that make sense?
