It would be nice to have an English documentation for the perl hooks. All I
found found was a perlhooks.rus :-( And since I started ranting :-) there
are more programs with an old minimal English README and an up-to-date
Russian HowTo/UserGuide. And why aren't the ChangeLogs updated anymore?
That makes following the husky project quite cumbersome. Updating v1.4
configs to v1.9 wasn't a simple task either because I had to check every
single keyword and all the options in the old and new documentation for any
changes. An update-1.4-to-1.9.txt would have been very helpful. Sorry, that
you're the victim of my ranting now, but the poor English documentation is
frustrating. In some cases I had to check the source code to be able to
understand what the documentation meant exactly.

BTW: I've submitted several bug fixes via Tobi.   

Regards,
Markus
