When things go smoothly there isnt much reason to post to the tor-relays
list, so i would expect lots of trouble reports and requests for help
here.  Stick around for awhile and i think you will see that a lot of
problems are teething pains - people learning how to configure their
relay for their particular hosting situation which includes a myriad of
factors.  It doesnt seem possible to get a complete picture by reading a
single document (less than booklet-sized) before starting a relay.
