       | The Linux Documentation Project has been around for 20+ years:

       | https://tldp.org/
       | 
       | Its history is here: https://tldp.org/history.html
       | 
       | It is not obvious to me if the two projects have different goals.

         | I wish GNU and Linux took a page from OpenBSD, if a command is
         | changed, a man page is created that contains all information we
         | need. Instead we have many sources of information, all with
         | different info.

           | There is still a lot of old information though, that doesn't
           | necessarily apply the same way today. It would be nice to see
           | more activity updating stuff.
