Regarding starting and stopping Evergreen... There was a list discussion regarding an Evergreen start up script (for starting evergreen + reporter + SIP server) last year where Anoop contributed the script and asked about dumping it into the repo: http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/msg04463.html
I had 2 questions: 1) Was it ever dumped somewhere in the Evergreen repository or another contribution repo? 2) Would this also be good to add to the official documentation with instructions on setting up Evergreen to start and shutdown properly at system reboot using this script? I ask because we use this wonderful script with a few minor tweaks at our institution. It works great but I couldn't find any follow up or info added to the wiki.

Dan Scott mentions it in his most excellent intro to Evergreen development workshop available here: http://open-ils.org/~denials/workshop.html#_starting_opensrf_services I am not sure where we have the list of Evergreen services. What is the best way for system administrators and developers to request/suggest 'what might be useful' entries into the official documentation? Just send out an email saying "Hey this seems like a nice thing we should have in the DIG docs."? Since we might stumble on to areas of the wiki/irc/mailing list that other staff might not as much.
