I have discussed with Dossy, privately, about working on some new
copy for the aolserver.com website. This is one area I have
planned to address on the website. I think one of the areas
where improvement can be made is informing people concerning the
history and current status of AOLserver.
My thoughts are not complete so I haven't come forward publically
with all my ideas but some of the copy I am considering is:
o History of AOLserver or What is all the ns stuff?
Generally background on NaviServer and AOLserver.
o AOLserver Project
How the project works, how to submit bugs, etc.
o Statments and Plans
A section to hold ``Vision Statements'', future roadmaps,
and other sorted management speak docuemnts.
o Case Studies and Stories for the Developer's Desk
A collection of case studies, web site histories, and tidbits
of information about developing and admin'ng AOLserver.
Examples for this section would include:
o AOLserver, Postgres and Stolen Idea. Birth of A
tinyurl.com clone: myturl.com
o Linux, DRBD and heartbeat. Building a highly available
two node cluster for AOLserver.
o nspam, a quick and dirty example of AOLserver module
development.
I am open to listening to suggests for additional topics and
areas.

Where are these patches? I admit I don't follow this list often
since stock AOLserver suits my needs but I have never seen those
patches to AOLserver.
Many we need to maintain a user community patch list giving a brief
description?
