Thanks for your reply, I'm anxiously awaiting new documentation.
In the mean time, who should I alert when documentation is wrong even?
For instance, node.conf has references to the NX mailing list... that
from what I understand has been closed. It is things like this that
cause me to need to rethink everything as I read.
Wiki's are great at being a living document... that, at read time,
should be current.
Thanks for your work...
