  This are all good comments and questions. I'll try
to answer them all over the next couple of days.
Please give me some time. I also invite others to help
me out.

  I suggest that we produce some sort of FAQ in the
end so that the effort isn't wasted. How about a
newbie/getting started FAQ and an advanced FAQ?

  If you want we can also collect more questions
(slashdot style) and then produce another techno
bubble/tech interview. For the last one, see
http://luxor-xul.sourceforge.net/interview-dec-2001.html

  Also I hope you relealize that I don't scale, that
is to say there's only so much I can do in a day and
my top priority is moving the code forward (apart from
having a live). I try my best not to neglect the
documentation. I'm not a code junkie and actually
enjoy writting prosa (that is, english non-fiction).

  Anyway, I also suggest creating a newie Luxor trail
guide page so newcomers aren't overwhelmed by the
existing documentation and for advanced user I suggest
creating an all links-in-one page sitemap. Any takers?
