[mrtg] SV: Re: List abuse

[Uffe Gavnholt]

This is important, that features are documented with examples, and 
frequently questions from this list are added to a FAQ.

I am quite new to MRTG, and has experienced, that MRTG is a product where a 
lot of the work is by try-and-error. The documentation, is not complete 
enough.

If I can I would like to help

Med venlig hilsen/Best regards

I'll volunteer.  (Hmm...in my copious spare time!  Yeah, right.)  I 
actually
did a tiny little bit of work on the 'unofficial faq' with Alex, creating
just such a doc as you suggested.

But will they use it?  It seems most of the people on lists in general 
don't
even bother to read the list guidelines.
