This is a very old document that we never really bothered to maintain, as
it should really fall upon the debian maintainer's responsibility.

Now, I'm willing to patch it if you include what should be changed here.
However, since I'm not a debian user, I won't be able to verify your
changes, so someone else will have to chime in.

I tried to review it but got lost at this part:

"""
This configuration is overly verbose, complex, and unnecessary.
Instead of pointing out every configuration error in it, I will
rewrite it from scratch:
In apache2.conf change:

# Include all the user configurations:
# BUT not before declaring that we will be using Name-based vhosts!
NameVirtualHost *:80
Include /etc/apache2/httpd.conf
"""

But AFAICT the doc never puts anything in the ununused httpd.conf.

I think it might be better to remove this document then to try to revise it.

+1 then.

If the debian folks are willing to document their changes and quirks, we
can possibly discuss integrating a document on the wiki later.
