I am working on a new website. This new website will also have an =
updated FAQ and some documentation.

See https://test.workrave.org/faq/ <https://test.workrave.org/faq/> for =
a readable FAQ. This is a readable version from workrave.org =
<http://workrave.org/>.
Documentation will be added to https://test.workrave.org/docs/ =
<https://test.workrave.org/docs/>. It is far from complete at the =
moment.

The site content is available on github =
(https://github.com/rcaelers/workrave-website =
<https://github.com/rcaelers/workrave-website>), in case someone wants =
to contribute :-)

This question is answered in the FAQ in the Breaks section.

> What do the Network items in the menu do?

If you are using multiple computers, each running an instance of =
Workrave, you can connect these Workraves to show the same =
timers/breaks.
It never worked very reliably and will be removed in a next version.
