Yes, a good documentation is very important. So, if you feel something
is not explained well enough, feel free to correct it - the whole webite
is a wiki.

I added that info - see http://wpkg.org/Wpkg.xml

If it's not clear enough, feel free to correct it.

Hmm? I don't think I understood correctly.
See http://wpkg.org/Category:Config_Files, but also the link I gave earlier.

You 100% sure it didn't work?

What logging feature?

See http://wpkg.org/Config.xml. Again, if it's not clear enough, feel 
free to correct it.

Oh, I was simplifying the links on the website, so that instead of
http://wpkg.org/index.php/FAQ a shorter http://wpkg.org/FAQ could be
used. However, the FAQ website collided with the FAQ file shipped with
MediaWiki, and hence, one couldn't see a proper page.
Thanks for letting me know.
