Thanks for the clarifications. What I am hearing is that even the 'reload routes' button is not safe to use on a busy server. I've created an issue http://code.google.com/p/web2py/issues/detail?id=847 with some potential/suggested minor content changes. I doubt they match the voice of the rest of the document, but hopefully some concrete suggested wording is better than none. Thanks, --Doug
