Excelent, I agree on that, it looks good. > I know I know, why are you working on the wiki when we want CODE?!?!? CODE > MAN! Well, I don't have a good answer for that.

Coding is good for coders, but end-users enjoy having documentation and help and information :P I can understand code, but never felt good with projects which think best way to get needed info is read code (mostly without comments :). One thing I noticed while browsing wiki around now, external and internal links look same. Is it possible to get external links show they are external? How-To section has in same list both links in same wiki, and also to other people's blogs and posts. Not to mean they are bad source of information, but at least reader would notice they are being directed out of the wiki (or directeded to other wiki page, containing own list of things like Monitoring has.) Even if this suggestion isn't doable or worth it, I think wiki is now much better place to start seeking information, and then leaf out to related things. -Joonas 'kerbe' Hämäläinen
