<listitem><para>Alex Hudson proposed to write a Self-certifying File System
|
||||
(SFS) HOWTO. SFS is a network filesystem that makes NFS exports securely
|
||||
available via the internet. It is a global filesystem, and works on a variety
|
||||
of free software and non-free software operating systems. This is not to be
|
||||
confused with the SFS mentioned in the Filesystems HOWTO. Although it runs
|
||||
over NFS, SFS is a system of sufficient complexity to warrant its own
|
||||
documentation. The SFS already have documentation, but it is quite technical
|
||||
and written in quite terse language, hence Alex proposed to write a HOWTO on
|
||||
this subject.</para></listitem>

<para>Machtelt Garrels conducted a check of the mirrors and updated <ulink url="http://www.tldp.org/mirrors.html">the list</ulink>. Over 300 official mirrors were checked for accurate and up-to-date display of the main site. 97 mirrors were unavailable, out of date or did not display the correct content. Two weeks after contacting the maintainers of those mirrors, almost half of these cases could be resolved. The other half get two weeks more to correct the errors. If they have not rectified the situation by then, those mirrors will disappear from the list. Currently, the list has 215 approved mirrors; for 65 mirrors the approval is pending.</para>

<para>The Linux Documentation Project (TLDP) and the Faculty of Journalism,
|

Library and Information Science at Oslo University College have joined
|

forces in an effort to improve the reader experience of the TLDP document
|

archive.</para>
|
||||
|
||||
<para>For more than 10 years TLDP has authored and collected an ever increasing
|
||||
number of documents. These have been filed in an equally growing document
|
||||
structure that has shown itself to be less than optimal. An overhaul was
|
||||
recognised to be overdue and this time it was decided not to "go it alone"
|
||||
but rather contact the experts on this field: the library and information
|
||||
scientists.</para>
|
||||
|
||||
<para>Oslo University College accepted the invitation from TLDP and soon Gerd
|
||||
Berget decided to do a professional job of determining an efficient set of
|
||||
categories as part of a Master's Degree study in library and information
|
||||
science. The initial set of categories is available at <ulink
