+ INTEGRATING INTO APACHE
+ -----------------------
+
+ If you want to include webcit into an Apache, because of you want to have it
+running alongside your i.e. php applications without adding another ip or using a
+different port than 443 / 80 (which may be blocked by company firewalls for
+example) you can do this with apaches mod_proxy. One can do this either to make
+webcit fill up into a full vhost (like webcit.mydomain.com) or to go into a
+subdirectory (like www.mydomain.com/webcit). find two config snippets, that can
+be added to apaches sample ssl config (which you may find in
+/usr/share/doc/apache2/examples/ssl.conf for example) Warning: you should be somewhat
+experienced with configuring apache to do that!
+
+VHOST context:
+<VirtualHost mydomain.com:443>
+ #here some of your config stuff like logging, serveradmin...
+ NameVirtualHost www.mydomain.com
+ <location />
+ allow from all
+ </location>
+
+ ProxyPass / http://127.0.0.1:2000/
+ ProxyPassReverse / http://127.0.0.1:2000/
+# make apache give away static content like images...
+ alias /static /var/lib/citadel/www/static
+
+</VirtualHost>
+
+SUBDIR context:
+<VirtualHost mydomain.com:443>
+ #here some of your config stuff like logging, serveradmin...
+ NameVirtualHost www.mydomain.com

+
+ ADVANCED CONFIGURE OPTIONS
+ --------------------------
+
+ To make webcit integrate smothly into your system there are several options available.
+--with-staticdir defines where webcit should put'n search its templates and images. If you
+want to go with a different Installation location then the point it is accessed at runtime,
+you can use --with-staticrundir. This option is meant to ease your needs if you're going
+to install the static files as 'examples' in a location like /usr/share/doc/webcit/examples,
+and enable the user to copy them over to another dir (like /var/lib/citadel/www), where
+they're accessed at runtime. (The debian instatll scripts provided with this package
+do this to preserve user changes to the template system, see debian/citadel-webcit.postinstall)
+
+[todo]
+Further there are possibilities to load the tiny_mce editor into a system uniq location. Webcit
+uses this standard component compose its messages for mails and postings. Several webcit installations
+that may differ in design but use the same tiny_mce (which is the default that webcit ships with)
