Too true. The e-mail post in question is in my reply to Howards post. It
was so detailed and clearly explained, that is must go in the main docs
;-)

I kind of put myself forward Dec/Jan, but the day job has taken over
again. Many things I proposed/started are just on hold, so if anyone wants
to help, I can get them up to speed.

I've pulled in all the Performance/Tuning stuff for the tuning sdf, just

Also, if you've got ideas for additional content or areas that you feel
that you know a lot about, then why not let everyone know and we can
allocate a topic etc. and start a "who's got what" on the FAQ-O-Matic.
