I just confirmed 6/Connecting to servers. I figured I was allowed to
confirm it because I was incorrectly listed as the submitter.

I thought about that. Thing is though, text wise every sentence will
end in " More information about this ..." which not only makes for
boring reading but also an unreadable document as the reader will
have trouble focussing on the right line.

The idea of the quick guide in my opinion was to explain in one or
two lines what it's used for but to refer for detailed documentation
elsewhere. Why do double work ?



Just a thought
