Yes, and it is not the only one. What is the process for requiring a
page renaming ?

What do others think about creating this wiki page ?

We can design a first wiki page for basic LAMP installation and give
links for more in depth installations process or advanced configuration.
For exemple, we have tomcat configuration on the LAMP wiki page, I am
not sure that it concerns most of the person who want a LAMP install.

We come back to the modularisation we have talked before.

That's right, but does all those features enter in a server @home topic
than in the LAMP installation ? That is a good idea for another page
(which basically only have pointers to other pages).
