I know this wasn't the main point of your post, but just for the record:

   * I didn't even think about the need for a license, my intent was to 
"contribute" what I wrote under the default license of the TLDP 
(whatever that turns out to be)

   * Yes, absolutely they can be merged--I wasn't really trying to write 
a "new" HOWTO, but I had trouble seeing how to comment on what you 
wrote, so I thought a new attempt, trying to say some of the same 
things you were saying might be useful (or not)

Anyway, feel free to merge it however it makes sense (or not)--I'm sure 
other will have comments as well as it gets closer to agreement.
