Yes I know it needs more content. As I mentioned it was just a proof of concept. Just as to get feedback on the design (or lack of it). My main concern is who is the target audience? Should this be for New users or as a reference for those who have gone beyond the basics? Another way to put it is do we need descriptions like those I tried to write. >How about checkboxes, and a script to collect how "popular" each port >is (so the list can be ordered on popularity). I like the idea except that until someone can suggest a good way to prevent false votes it is not of much use. Take for example what happened with Distributed net recently. Someone falsified stats just "to proof it could be done and that they lacked proper security".
