2014-01-12new-threshold-syntax.md: Remove a commentHolger Weiss1-2/+0
2014-01-11doc/faq/donations.md: Mention a contact addressHolger Weiss1-0/+3
Stating we accept donations without mentioning how to initiate them doesn't make much sense.

2014-01-11doc/faq/git.md: Add clarifications regarding indexHolger Weiss1-17/+20

2014-01-11doc/faq/git.md: Omit most references to SVNHolger Weiss1-11/+11
This text was written a few years ago, when we switched from SVN to Git. These days, it makes less sense to assume the reader is accustomed to SVN but not to Git.
2014-01-11Add an FAQ entry that recommends binary packagesHolger Weiss2-0/+22
While we provide and document our source tarball, we should clarify that we recommend using distribution-provided binary packages whenever possible.
2014-01-11Import most FAQ items from old web siteHolger Weiss24-1/+912
Import most of the FAQ entries from our old web site. A few outdated questions have been omitted, many of the imported ones were updated in one way or another, and the order of the development-related questions has been changed. Also, the phrasing of some questions has been modified (just to make the headings shorter). For the record, this is the original list of questions from the old web site: General ------- * Who controls the Nagios Plugins project? * What license is Nagios Plugins distributed under? * Who owns the copyright for the Nagios Plugin code? * Can I submit a patch to this project? * Do you accept donations? Compiling --------- * ./configure appears to hang * check_ldap, check_radius or check_pgsql don't compile even though configure output says the required libraries are present * How come check_http/check_tcp doesn't work with --ssl? * How do I compile the Nagios::Plugin perl module? * I can't compile check_mysql on solaris * I get '":types" is not exported by the Params::Validate module' when running tests * Why does Solaris use pst3 for check_procs? Installing ---------- * Some of the root plugins (check_dhcp and check_icmp) haven't been installed. What's happening? * Why aren't my plugins installed as the nagios user? And what about root plugins? Development ----------- * How do I use Git? * Can I add extra tests to the C routines? * Can I use the Nagios Plugins in my own project? * How can I find out more about writing a plugin? * How do I make changes on nagiosmib? * How do I prove the C routines work? * How do I use and update Gnulib? * How do I use the Nagios::Plugin perl module? * How do the test parameters in NPTest.pm work? * Private C APIs
