Generally, the best place to look is within the code itself. Failing
that, of course, you can always try the wiki
(http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/index.php/Main_Page)

Oh, and on another note, can the Wiki be fixed so it comes up @
http://www.mythtv.org/wiki ? Shouldn't apache redirect automatically?
Though, seeing as the Wiki is probably in a virtual folder, all that's
needed is to have a "wiki" directory made in the root so Apache "Does
the Right Thing™"...
