Hi, Sean
Yes, future Linux Documentation Library will be using current information
from the base system web sites (http://tldp.org). But the future "Linux
Documentation Library" on Fultus elibrary web site
(http://elibrary.fultus.com) will not be a mirror of files from TLDP. This
is documentation collection in the searchable (through all collection
simultaneously) Web Help format (check similar collection: FreeBSD -
http://elibrary.fultus.com/mergedProjects/FreeBSD%20Documentation/index.htm
and RedHat -
http://elibrary.fultus.com/mergedProjects/Red%20Hat%20Documentation/index.htm).
Search: This is not only index - this is full text serch.
I could say this is Unix analog Microsoft MSDN library.
Is there something else?
1. Linux/RedHat/FreeBSD documentation in ONE place.
2. I think handy navigation and accessibility any information from one
navigation panel.
3. Creation ebooks in a different format is the future part of my project
for all Unix systems. eBook formats:
a.. Searchable Adobe PDF format with Bookmark link page (different for
desktop and PDA);
a.. Compiled HTML format (chm) (for Windows);
a.. Microsoft Reader format (lit) (for Windows).
Examples:
You can try downloadable eBooks of the 4.6 FreeBSD from main FreeBSD page
http://elibrary.fultus.com/mergedProjects/FreeBSD%20Documentation/index.htm
or
http://www.fultus.com/free/documentation.phtml -
Thanks
-Oleg

Did I miss an announcement? What makes your LDL different from TLDP?
As for a list of linux documentation, everything available from TLDP is
listed
on the website (http://tldp.org). To become a TLDP mirror, check out the
info at http://tldp.org/mirrors.html#mirroring
