One area that could use a little cleanup is examples of the differing syntax's 
for using client certificates.  It is possible to figure it out from existing 
docs, but if you aren't already used to using the cert9.db NSS certutil syntax 
switching over from the openSSL backend is a bit of a headache. 

 I s'pose that means I should submit the examples I care about phrased into the 
existing docs in a way that makes sense to me so people switching from RHEL 5 
to RHEL 6 (for example) can see how to fix their broken scripts that depend on 
cURL a bit more easily.  I'll try to remember that when I'm at work Monday.

One of the most surprising results (to me) is that "docs" was voted the most 
"worst area" in the project with a big margin. (Admittedly twice as many also 
voted it as one of the best areas).

I'd like to understand this better. What exactly is considered bad and what 
can we do about it? I think I'm having my nose a little too deep in all the 
details to see this clearly. I was under the impression our documentation was 
pretty good...

What's the biggest problem with the current docs? What's the biggest thing we 
lack? Please share some ideas and thoughts here!
