New document proposals
-.
+Matt Barnes would like to start a Linux Documentation - Audio
+Video project. The project aims to convert The LDP documents to wave and mp3
+format. The goal of this exercise is to show that it can be done, and that it
+should be done. The intent is to allow someone to download a media file into a
+media player and listen to the information rather than always having to read it
+and possibly stream them over the internet. Contact Matthew S Barnes (mbarnes
+at bfinity dot net) if you have more ideas.

+iSCSI-Linux HOWTO: iSCSI is becoming more popular,
+particularly on Linux. Ben Rockwood was bothered by the massive lack of
+documentation avalible and wrote his own, titled "A Quick Guide to iSCSI on
+Linux" (http://www.cuddletech.com/articles/iscsi/index.html).
+The document is currently considered as the manual for the iSCSI Enterprise
+Target project (http://iscsitarget.sourceforge.net/) and is on of the popular
+guides to iSCSI on the net. Ben intends to update the document and
+submit it to The LDP for inclusion as a HOWTO rather than maintain it on his own
+site as a paper.
-.
+Ben Rockwood noticed that the Benchmark HOWTO hasn't been updated since 1997. The unmatinained list shows a new maintainer for the doc, but an email to him got a failed response from the mail server. Ben is of the opinion that the document could be a bit more heavy on disk subsystems. Currently the document is geared towards general systems performance. Ben was wondering if he should start a new Disk-Benchmarking HOWTO and would like your input. Email benr@cuddletech.com

+German SMIL tutorial on Linux: The Computing Center of the
+University of Kassel produced a SMIL introduction to Linux (around 4 hours of
+video, with subtitles in German and some accompanying figures). Andreas
+Matthias wrote in to offer this to The LDP for integration into The LDP but did
+not find any support for non-textual formats in. The (not yet sufficiently
+polished product) is at http://www.uni-kassel.de/hrz/anwendungen/matthias/unix-kurs/online.
+He was wondering if someone who understands German and has some talent in
+layouting descritpive graphics would help them to complete the project. Please
+contact matthias@hrz.uni-kassel.de if you would like to offer help.
