Very good points. We'll go with this and work out the kinks as they develop. :)

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: http://kb.monitorware.com/rsyslog-f40.html 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 ;)].
