It is a complete grab-bag of 'stuff' and as such is pretty close to unreadable. A completely cool project would be to find something that would allow us to grind up the contents of the FAQ, the release notes, the hardware support info in the (4) manpages, and probably other things that I'm forgetting, and spit them out as a knowledge base. Does anyone here know of any other Open Source project that is doing something like that? mcl
