Dear TLDP,
I'm interested in helping out with writing, editing, organizing,
scripting, etc. I've been using Linux since ~1993, and it has slowly
dawned on me that there's no longer a definitive source for edited,
reviewed, organized, *up-to-date* Linux documentation. The recent
Slashdot posting reminded me once again.
I found the task list and the 2010 manifesto. What's the current
status? How many active maintainers? Top priorities? IMHO, the
front page and browse/index pages need a complete overhaul to help
*users* find important docs. As for the Wiki, the old system sounds
less troublesome. Have you investigated moving from CVS to GIT?
Anyhow, I should probably start by writing or revising a few Tips and
Mini-Howtos. Any suggestions?
Thanks.
