>   We've been working behind the scenes to create more documentation for
> the server.  Every new version from 3.0.7 onwards will have new
> documentation added to the site http://networkradius.com/doc/.
> Documentation for the old versions will be archived, but not updated.
>
>   We've added some more documentation for 3.0.8.  More modules are there,
> and we've expanded / updated the documentation for the existing modules.
>
>   I've also updated the main page on freeradius.org.  Apparently the
> "documentation" tab in the page header was hard to find.  I've added a
> section called "Documentation", and written text pointing to the various
> things available.  Since the largest complaint is about concepts, the first
> link is to the technical guide available from Network RADIUS.  I've also
> added links to "unlang" keywords, and to documentation for each module.
>
>   The documentation for each module describes what the module does, which
> processing sections it can be used in, what values it returns, along with
> the configuration items it takes.  It also points to the default
> configuration on github, for people who want worked examples.  Many modules
> also include short examples in their documentation page.
>
>   Astute readers will note that much of the new documentation is on the
> commercial site.  The reality is that it takes months of effort and
> professional copy editing to get high-quality documentation.  That
> investment was done by Network RADIUS, so that's where the documentation
> resides.
>
>   The FreeRADIUS wiki is still available.  It contains many "how to"
> guides, which serve a different purpose from the detailed configuration
> documentation.
>
>   The wiki will continue to exist, and we will still accept any and all
> useful patches for documentation updates.  However, the *detailed*
> documentation on unlang, modules, string expansions, debugging guides, etc.
> will only be on the commercial side.  As head of Network RADIUS, I'm
> investing not only in developing more code for the server, I'm also
> investing in documentation for it, too.
>
>   The commercial documentation is available for free, and will always be
> free.  It's one more contribution I can make to the community.
