Rich and others interested in dirvish:

Go to http://www.dirvish.org/mailman/listinfo/dirvish and sign up
for the mailing list.  Or just look at the list archive, which you
can search using google "site:www.dirvish.org/pipermail your_query"

It is a low volume list, a couple dozen emails a month, about 300
subscribers.  Almost everybody on the list joined to ask dirvish
questions, then hung around to answer other people's questions.
Some people sign up, ask questions, then unsubscribe a month or
two after dirvish is running.  So far, very low flamage and asshole
content.

Dirvish is the kind of tool that is somewhat hard to understand and
set up, but after you do, it just disappears into the background.
Paradoxically, that means that some of the six month users are better
at answering newbie questions than many of the people that have been
using it the longest. 

Some of us have not done any major configuration in years, beyond
copying and modifying an initialization script or two that we
built in /usr/local/sbin .  It is a lot easier to set up and
maintain if you build a few shell scripts to personalize it to
your site.  Some of us share some of those scripts on the wiki
at http://wiki.dirvish.org/index.cgi?ExampleSystems .
