[CC: hackers as although this is a doc issue, I think some people on
     hackers could help ... ]

You know, it would be good if someone (or a group) could document what
all the different sysctl parameters do. I'm particularly mystified by
what some of the net.* parameters do and would love an explanation
which doesn't involve trying to unravel several hundred K of source
code.

If someone would care to explain them to me (or have an e-mail convo
with me explaining the terms I don't understand) I would be willing to
try and write a handbook section on it, but as it stands, I'd be lucky
to correctly document half of the sysctl parameters.

Thanks

Gary
