Just a thought: there is a Wiki for Qemu (see link on Qemu home page). Couldn't we use this Wiki to collect documentation, tips, tricks and patches for Qemu? Quite a few patches and even some mini-tutorials have been sent to the list, but if Hetz wasn't collecting them on dad-answers they would be pretty much lost. Using the Wiki would also have the advantage that people could post comments on these patches right in place. Also, documentation could be improved and extended by whoever feels up to doing it.
