Wiki pages for standard modules were created as an English translation of Russian docs long time ago, when there were no official English docs. Since then, official English became available. In past years we've faced multiple cases of old/incorrect/missing descriptions on wiki confusing people, so these pages were deprecated and links were changed to official docs instead. Moreover, changing pages to do redirects instead was recenly discussed. Supporing multiple versions of the documentation isn't something we want to spent time on, and bit rot on these pages on wiki can't be just ignored. What exactly do you find "much more readable"? Wording? Design? May be it's something that can be improved in the documentation? -- Maxim Dounin http://nginx.org/en/donation.html _______________________________________________ nginx mailing list nginx@nginx.org http://mailman.nginx.org/mailman/listinfo/nginx
