It's not quite the same, but have you considered a wiki or a tracker or
"Faq-O-Matic"[1] ?

... which is not a bad quality in the first place.  It makes finding
real errors easy  8-)

I think there's nothing wrong with the format, but there seems to be

no leafnode error message, as egrep(1) tells me.  You should have your
own host in your own message-id.
