I think the wiki could do with more examples around setting up NFS clients/servers, aquarela usage, dedicated mail servers. Does anyone think this is a bad idea? I mean, I know we're supposed to be able to read the man pages and just be successful, but I still have a lot of trial and error, and often no success (like with aquarela). Does having tons of shortcuts in the wiki discourage people from reading the man pages, and is that a bad thing, or does it just comfort new users with HOWTO's to get started on Plan 9? Just a thought. Seems like more examples would be a good thing.
