Thanks for contributing, I just added some minor corrections.

Thanks, that looks better now :) One thing I think that is missing is an explanation of the difference between:

  include
  include append

  exclude
  exclude append

I would guess that 'append' tells amanda something like 'you should append this to the previous dumps of that mountpoint rather than considering it seperate', but I don't know. Also, the self-consistency is dubious since amanda seems to consider /home/wanda as a part of /home --- or maybe not. It would be nice if someone could shed a light on the logic behind that.
