All praise to you for your continually improving documentation (which I
should download so as to avoid hitting your server all the time).

It'd be nice if a few more simple cgi perl scripts could be included
with the source (or maybe they are with the final release of 1.2). A few
of the simple form-mail and search scripts from "Matt's script archives"
would be nice.  With a few of them included in the standard releases of
Apache an easy "out of the box" searchable site could be built with one
tar xvf or rpm -i command.  This may help convince idiot managers - who
think Microsoft's IIS  with "WebBot extensions that work with FrontPage"
is the 'easiest way' to set up a searchable site - to stick with the
perfectly fine Unix web servers they already have.

Regards and thanks,


Graham Todd
