Yeah - i collected some questions because i thought about a FAQ in the
user manual. The website is the better place, so if you want to have my
docbook xmlised FAQ .... ;)

Yosh want to give me an account and i'll put the documentation
frequently on this one. This should solve the problem I guess...

Well.. i would assume that the "Help" menupoint gives me help if I'm
stuck in the website or need some to know what some words mean. I think
Documentation is the better main point. You can then specify which
documentation you mean:

    Documentation
        |-> Developer
        |-> User Manual
        '-> Tutorials

(or whatever fits better in the left menu)
