Hi,

I've just gone through the process of installing and configuring the FTP server from the M3 distribution (zip) from scratch, and came across a few quirks:

1. The main project page (and possibly others) seems to have a bunch of typos, such as:
   - "The Apache FtoServer" => FtpServer
   - "as a Windows service of Unix/Linux daemon" => or
   - "or as embedded into a Java application" => or can be embedded (?)
   - "a FTP application" => an
   - "of FTP server" => of an FTP server
2. The docs in the M3 distribution show M2 to be the latest release (in the home page). 3. docs/installation.html seems to be outdated - there is no ftpd.properties in the distribution, nor the shown GUI app, the directory structure is different, etc. 4. It would be nice and more intuitive if the main configuration.html had links to the various other configuration section pages. 5. The JavaDoc links between the core and ftplet-api subdirectories are broken (for example the link from BaseUser to the User interface). Some links are to the local files and some to the mina web server, but in any case it's broken. 6. The sample ftpd-full.xml file seems to have its formatting messed up - the tags are all joined into a long wrapped line instead of normal hierarchical indentation. 7. I could not find any mention in the docs of how to manage users (i.e. add new ones, etc.). Is it explained anywhere?

That's it for the first pass :-)
