[debian-knoppix] English support and development docs



Knoppix is brilliant! I was trying to organize and develop the same thing.
I am impressed.

I am yet another American that only speaks English. Sorry.
Is there anyway to get newsletters and the FAQ also translated
into English?
Does anyone have experience on multi language development
discussions, and how to embrace everyone?

I respect the project's German roots and developer(s), and do not 
want to change that, but I would like to suggest detailed English 
support for several reasons. [starting with I am lazy! =) ]

English is the most common second language spoken in the world,
and dominates the software, internet, media, science, aviation, 
shipping, common law, and most multi-lateral diplomatic discussions, 
so I would lobby for additional detailed English support, after 
German of course. 

I want to customize and develop knoppix for my own goals. 
Is there a detailed knoppix development doc?
Is there source code to download and compile? 
or are knoppix's clever bits human readable like bash files?

How would I set a fixed IP on the floppy?
Has anyone looked at setting up samba, apache, webmin, SWAT,
netatalk and other server services?

-Nathaniel


ps: Has anyone considered storing configs on a central server?
(think linux terminal server), after booting the CD, use DHCP, 
and collect the info about this box?
If the box is supposed to be a fixed IP, bind that IP to the nic.
and get on with it.
