cool.
what's the relation between the FAQ at http://deluge-torrent.org/faq.php and the one on the wiki?
are they synced at all? or just updated by hand?

A little sparse at the moment but keep checking back! If anyone has any suggestions or requests for documentation please let me know.
nice.
seeing you've started with installation, do you think we should add a section on installing deluge as a daemon / thin client?
I know this had popped up a few times in the forums (there's even a stickied topic on it in this forum), so it could be useful.

I believe markybob updated the faq.php based on what was in the wiki.. I am more in favour of removing the faq.php page just exclusively using the wiki, since it's much easier to keep it up to date.

yeah I think that would be a good idea.
most people who visit the site will naturally click on the faq link, so making it link to the wiki would be best.
that said there are a few things that should be merged from the faq.php into the wiki faq.

It would be great if i could download all of the manual as a compressed file for more thorough/offline reading when the networks clogged etc. It could obviously be as a torrent. i'm trying to avoid copying the manual part of the site locally since this is somewhat obnoxious in terms of using your' bandwidth, especially for something open source. of course parts of it are frequently updated but i suspect most of the manual pages are somewhat static. In any case a fine piece of software with the type of "power user" features and plugins i like, not to mention the default install haveing the correct encryption settings unlike so many torrent clients that default to no encryption at all. Encryption is good even/especially when downloading os images.
