yeah, but review also costs resources. I think an occasional typo is less
of a problem than no doc at all. We'll set it to "publishing permitted". If
you do not feel ok with this in the beginning, just send a review request.
In all other case, I think it would be a solution to send a quick
announcement to the list, in the hopes that someone will read and comment
if required.

Just in case I had not mentioned that: there are also the rsyslog forums,
which also receive their share of questions. Judging from the google logs,
they also receive a fair share of FAQ-type traffic. If you like, we can
rank you there, too. It lives here:

In general, we are very open to web page suggestions. I am *not* really
happy with the current state, but Adiscon will not pay for a web or UI
designer (that's part of the picture that this is not a multi-million
dollar biz but more traditional OSS). I can't promise we will integrate
suggestions immediately, but I am very interested in improving the state.
I'll drive the internal politics if necessary ;)

Bottom line: everything is changable. But we would like to have the site
run on our own infrastructure. I also frankly admit that the google ads
finally pay for the infrastructure and so this is probably one of the few
things that is very hard to change ;)  [It's far from big  money, but pays
the virtual servers and traffic - since 6 month or so ;)].
