OLSR is a routing protocol used in mobile ad-hoc networks. Here is a preliminary copy of the OLSR IPv6 HOWTO, created with the help of the OLSRd developer. + +Emma Jane Hogbin submitted an update of the Reviewer HOWTO. This document contains information for our editors so that they can streamline the look and feel of TLDP documents. + +Nearly there with the Kernel Build HOWTO by Kwan Lowe. A lot of our readers have been complaining about the retirement of the Kernel HOWTO, and about the time it takes to rewrite this document. Good news: your patience will be awarded very soon. Our reviewer team is raising efforts to have the language and technical review ready by the end of this week. + + + + + + + +New document proposals + + + +Howard Shane came up with the idea of writing a Home Office HOWTO or FAQ, addressing such questions as how to print different types of files? and Which applications to use to print, faq and format files and share them among others with non-Linux systems?. He argues that much of the information needed by beginning users is out there, but shattered over tens of different documents and thus hard to find. Howard awaits your input. + +Zeeshan Ali asks whether his Video-Wall HOWTO, using Xinerama and Gstreamer, would be a good addition to TLDP. The document has been around for a while, but he now converted it to XML and applies for inclusion in our collection. Send him your comments! + +Martin Rodgers thinks his Ameol/Wine HOWTO is finished. Ameol is the offline reader for the commercial CIX service. Martin would appreciate input from Ameol users. + + + + + + +Updated HOWTOs, FAQs and Guides + + + +AJ Lewis' LVM HOWTO v0.9 features an updated FAQ, info about ext3, an updated links section and an overview of LVM2 commands. + +The list of documents being reviewed has been cleaned out rigidly by Emma Jane, who jumps in while Tabatha takes a much-needed holiday. + +. + + + + + + +News in The LDP world + + + + +Wanted: Game Server HOWTO maintainer + +Anders Jensen-Urstad is looking for somebody to take over the Game Server HOWTO. The document describes setup and maintenance of the various Quake servers and the Half-Life and Unreal Tournament servers. + + + + + +Outdated LDP man page + +Very few people know that most Linux systems come with an LDP man page that you can display with the man LDP command. Unfortunately, this man page contains a lot of old links. The maintainer has been contacted to put this straight, and we hope it doesn't take too long for all distributions to include the corrected man page. + + + + + +News item title 3: + +News item 3 body. + + + + + + + + +Discussions on The LDP lists + + + + + +Discussion topic title 1: + +Discussion topic 1 body. + + + + + +Discussion topic title 2: + +Discussion topic 2 body. + + + + + +Discussion topic title 3: + +Discussion topic 3 body. + + + + + + + + +HOWTO contribute to The LDP + +The Linux Documentation +Project (TLDP) is working on developing free, high quality +documentation for the GNU/Linux operating system.
