From my dealings with the www@ team, I have nothing but good
things to say. They do a very good job in handling any problems or
updating I wish to be fixed.
However, on another note I would really like to see an improvement
in the kernel documentation. By that I do not mean internals, I
simply mean on how new users configure it. Similar to how FreeBSD do
it:
http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/kernelconfig-config.html
I have seen countless times when the problem users can't get
they're kernel to compile is due to an incorrect config. If the
options where correctly documented (to a users basic
understanding, this excludes basic raw comments in the config
files) it would make it much nicer for newcomers to understand.
Just my opinion.
