Has anyone looked into autopackage?
For Fedora, I planned to do this but ran out of time, If anyone is
interested, see http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Extras. If you need help
in packaging, check out http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mentors
If you believe, that bundling them as part of Red Hat Enterprise Linux
would be useful, then I would like some more information
* What has improved since the time Red Hat decided to drop the docs?.
The review process has ensured better quality but the distribution
differences would probably still cause confusion for customers. From a
LDP volunteer stand point I would prefer LDP authors continue to
document the neutral methods wherever possible but wearing a Red Hat ;-)
, I can see where this would problematic for any particular distribution
or vendor many of which produce their own documentation.
* Do you want all of the LDP docs packaged into ISO images? Packages
available in a RHN channel?. Whatever works?
* Do you have a list of the higher quality ones?
* What other things would you prefer to be done?
