[synrg@sanctuary.nslug.ns.ca: Bug#145555: ITP: subproject-howto -- A HOWTO for starting a Debian subproject]

I have just filed this ITP for subproject-howto, which I am in the process
of writing.

I have many more ideas locked up in my head right now that haven't yet made
it into the early draft I mention in this ITP.  I'll be looking for help
proofing this, when the time comes.  For now, I just wanted to bring it to
your attention to let you know what I have been up to recently.

  Description     : A HOWTO for starting a Debian subproject

There is an unreleased early draft of this native Debian package (html
version only) at:

	http://people.debian.org/~synrg/subproject-howto.html

It is obviously not finished yet, but it will be fleshed out and
version 1.0 will be uploaded before the end of this month.

I have deliberately chosen the shorter "subproject-howto" name rather
than "debian-subproject-howto" as the latter is a bit unwieldly.
Besides, "subproject of what project?" is implicit (cf. harden and
harden-* packages where "harden what distribution?" is implicitly
Debian).

While my first draft was placed under the GPL, as this document
is patterned after junior-doc/quickguide which is currently
GPL'd, it will certainly not remain this way.  I am considering
the GNU FDL license in spite of all of the recent controversy.
It seems to suit my purposes best.

The document is written in debiandoc format.
