editors: Thread: Re: BOOTDISK HOWTO came WITHOUT the attachment

Machtelt,

This e-mail came to me without the Bootdisk-HOWTO.  And, besides, I thought
it was the DVD Ripping HOWTO that I was going to review, although I'll do
either one.

Just making a couple of things clear:

- - Posting attachments to the tldp lists is generally not a good idea, as
they can be left out; it is better to post a URL, or to include the doc in
text format in the body of your mail;
- - When a request for review comes in, I wait a little while to see who is
volunteering, then I decide who gets the doc.  This will make sure that
the work is distributed in a fair way, i.e. that not the same people are
doing all the work everytime a request comes in.

So, I suggest that you can indeed do the review of the DVD Ripping HOWTO,
and Alison can do the BootDisk HOWTO review.  Please let me know off-list
if you each have a copy of the documents you need.  After you have had a
quick read through the document, please give me an estimate of when you
can have the review ready.

General guidelines for reviewing can be found in the reviewer HOWTO:
http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/LDP-Reviewer-HOWTO/index.html

Please don't hesitate to contact me if you have questions.

Tille.

Tille,

I agree with Alison, and probably didn't read correctly.  :)

If Jack wants to do the DVD doc, I would be glad to collaborate with
Alison on the Bootdisk-HOWTO.  That would probably make the most sense.

Thanks,
Tab
