It's rightly noted that the current docs are just that - the official docs with 
predetermined format and the right amount of information for features of the 
CAS server. It is developed and maintained by CAS server developers 
implementing the software. On the other hand, the old confluence is a free-form 
wiki which is user contributed, hence you were able to get all this "rich" 
tutorial style content. May be it would be appropriate to consider ressurecting 
user-contributed wiki in some shape and form for just this very purpose.
I'm finishing on this topic now and let other devs chime in here if they choose 
to do so.
Cheers, D.

Hi,
Thanks for the link.

About the documentation, it is something that I have already asked. It
is like very hard to find examples, for instance, in the old version we
could find Tutorials and HOWTOs, and now we don't. Now the documentation
is very simplified and schematic, before it had like better explanations
to understand the whole system.

Regards!
