Good deal. :) M. Haardt and Rik Faith need to battle it out to see who coordinates the project. You both can do it, that's fine with me. I'd like to keep all LDP alpha docs (including alpha man pages) on ALPHA/doc-project on nic.funet.fi. Let's not split off man pages to cs.unc.edu--- I'd like everything in one place so I can say: "Here it is." Once you want to release man pages we upload them to tsx-11: docs/man and Sunsite. I agree that sections 1, 6, and 8 should have man pages bundled with the source/binary and shouldn't be handled by the LDP. However folks on the LDP can volunteer to write man pages for authors of Linux software if they wish, but it won't be officially handled by the LDP. Let me know what you work out. mdw ------------------------------ From: kfogel@occs.cs.oberlin.edu (Karl Fogel) Subject: TCP/IP documentation Date: Wed, 3 Mar 1993 03:14:29 +0200 Matt Welsh sez: >What does everyone think?

I think this is a very good idea, since (I believe) there are a lot of Linuxers who aren't using the networking code, because their machines are not located in networked buildings. I don't have a network card, and none of the (4) other linuxers I know personally do either. Networking info is not useful for everyone, but the other sysadminning stuff *is* of concern to all. -karl fogel (kfogel@cs.oberlin.edu) ------------------------------ End of DOC Digest ***************** ------- .
