The Debian Documentation project seems to be progressing really slow. Could we do the following things. 1) Set up the DDP CVS so that all Debian developers can use it. This way perhaps DDP gets more contributors. 2) Engourage maintainers of packages with system administration fuction to provide usage notes, for example to the System Administrators Manual. 3) Give more coolness points to those unfortunate souls who write documentation. I am going to start working on the Debian System Administrators manual again, I have collected some notes on stuff to write. I am also prepared to accept contributions and write it up in the manual. Are there any plans to move to DocBook? I have not seen anything on this subject during the last half year. Hopefully I am not stirring up a hornets nest. What about those Debian books published, what kind of "license" are they using and what is the deal with the publisher? I'm asking to know if it is OK to use parts of those books on DDP. And why are they not part of DDP already? -- Tapio Lehtonen Tapio.Lehtonen@IKI.FI PGP public key from http://www.iki.fi/Tapio.Lehtonen
