I think you are wrong in several ways. The times I have set up
fbb have been easy. Included is a scipt which you run, which creates
all the needed directories and creates a default setup. I have
rarely encountered a similar piece of complex software which is
so easy to set up.
The english is certainly not bad and the licensing has been GPL
for over a year now.
