Dave, if you are still bored over the incident over HTTPD, let me just
remind you that the FreeBSD CORE development team has no obligation to 
support HTTPD or whatsoever. Their main job is to developed the kernel
and they have so far done a great job. Jordon has make the installation
so simple that most newbies can get off without much help.

Now, if you look _HARD_ enough, there is enough documentation. Obviously
you didnt even bother to check out http://www.freebsd.org/ or even nearer
to you, /usr/share/FAQ/ directory. So for your documentation on HTTPD,
complain it to your HTTPD provider.

In short, RTFM.
