+<h2>How you can Help</h2>
+<p><b>You like rsyslog and would like to lend us a helping hand?</b> This page
+tells you how easy it is to help a little bit. You can contribute to the project
+even with a single mouse click! If you could pick a single item from the
+whishlist, that would be awfully helpful!</p>
+<p>This is our whishlist:</p>
+<ul>
+ <li>let others know how great rsyslog is<ul>
+ <li>rate us at <a href="http://freshmeat.net/rate/52985/">freshmeat.net</a>
+ and <a href="http://www.icewalkers.com/vote.php?ID=2420">icewalkers.com</a></li>
+ <li>spread word about rsyslog in forums and newsgroups</li>
+ <li>place a link to <a href="http://www.rsyslog.com">www.rsyslog.com</a>
+ from your home page</li>
+ </ul>
+ </li>
+ <li>let us know about rsyslog - we are eager for feedback<ul>
+ <li>tell us what you like and what you not like - so that we can include
+ that into development</li>
+ <li>tell us what you use rsyslog for - esepcially if you have high
+ traffic volume or an otherwise "uncommon" deployment. We are looking for
+ case studies and experience how rsyslog performs in unusual scenarios.</li>
+ <li>allow us to post your thoughts and experiences as a "user story" on
+ the web site (so far, none are there ;))</li>
+ </ul>
+ </li>
+ <li>if you know how to create packages (rpm, deb, ...)<ul>
+ <li>we would very much appreciate help with package creation. We know
+ that it is important to have good binary packages for a product to
+ spread widely. Yet, we do not have the knowledge to do it all ourselfs.
+ <a href="mailto:rgerhards@adiscon.com">Drop Rainer a note </a>if you
+ could help us out.</li>
+ </ul>
+ </li>
+ <li>if you are a corporate user<ul>
+ <li>you might consider <a href="http://www.adiscon.com">Adiscon</a>'s
+ commercial <a href="http://www.monitorware.com/">MonitorWare products</a>
+ for Windows, e.g. to deliver Windows Event Log data to rsyslogd (sales
+ of the commercial products funds the open source development - and they
+ also work very well).</li>
