What exactly did you find lacking?

A long time ago when I did my first install of Netsaint 0.0.4, and me being
that much greener in the sysadmin business, it still didn't take more than
a day or two until I had a basic installation up and running, with web
interface and everything.

Within a week, I had written a few custom plugins using Perl and/or sh
script.  As for configuration of hosts/services, the examples in the
example config files from 'make install-config' were plenty for me.

Was it 100% done immediately?  No, not at all.  But I didn't recall any
real issues with the docs (and remember, that was years ago, with 0.0.4),
nor with runtime config.

I'd be interested to hear details of the problems you had.
