 1.) How to launch the hub:
---------------------------
+--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 
 At the current stage of code base you need to launch the hub by entering the
 following command at at command prompt (Win32) or console (Linux etc.) in the

 Another other (later added) parameters should be added after app=hub in the same
 way due to the "design" of the inc/includes.php script. We need to change that
 anyway.
+
+If you want to e.g. temporarily try out an other 'node mode' just add a parameter
+'mode=???' to the above command by '???' can be one of the following:
+
+mode=regular  -  The default mode for joining the hub network as a regular node.
+                 This mode doesn't have to be entered manually unless you
+                 changed the configuration entry in application/hub/config.php
+
+mode=boot     -  Your node acts as a bootstrapping-node. This mode is completely
+                 the same as the master-mode. If you can make sure that your node
+                 is up at least 99%, every downtime of a bootstrapping-node
+                 'hurts' the network, and that you have the latest SVN changes
+                 you might want to contact me with your static IP number and port
+                 number of your node so I may add it to the hard-coded list of
+                 boostrapping-nodes.
+
+mode=list     -  Your node participates as a list-node in the network which
+                 'aids' the master-nodes by maintaining an identical list of
+                 nodes.
+
+mode=master   -  A master-node holds a list of known nodes and which types of
+                 objects they are sharing.

+2.) Current development notices:
+--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+These modes are currently not yet finished. If you try an invalid out you may
+get an exception called 'ClassNotFoundException' which has to be rewritten to
+test if the mode is valid and output a nicer message to the user.
