+# On Syndicate Configuration
+
+inotify doesn't go through symlinks, making symlinks a little less useful than they could
+otherwise be, which is a shame.
+
+HOWEVER the initial scan DOES go through symlinks. This is a bug. Either make the reactive code
+traverse symlinks (would be nice??), or make the initial scan ignore symlinks.
