Hehe. Try looking at Wikipedia, probably the most active Wiki today.
About 200 people work on it each day. I posted two GFDL'ed HOWTOs
there myself to see if they got any work, which I was going to feed
back to the authors. But none so far. See the LDP entry on
wikipedia.com.
I have also been kicking around the idea of rolling a few articles
from Wikipedia into the LDP distribution at some point. All pie in the
sky, no real plans. I have a lot of other work to get in place first
before it would be practical.
Later,
