<date>v3.8, June 2000</date>
<abstract>
This document contains an index to the Linux HOWTOs as well as other
information about the HOWTO project.
</abstract>
<TOC>
<SECT>What Are Linux HOWTOs?
<p>
Linux HOWTOs are documents which describe in detail
a certain aspect of configuring or using Linux. For
example, there is the <EM/Installation HOWTO/, which gives
instructions on installing Linux, and the <EM/Mail HOWTO/, which
describes how to set up and configure mail under Linux.
Other examples include the <EM/NET-3 HOWTO/ and the
<EM/Printing HOWTO/.
HOWTOs are comprehensive docs - much like an FAQ but generally not
in question-and-answer format. However, many HOWTOs contain an FAQ
section at the end.
There are several HOWTO formats available: plain text, PostScript,
DVI, and HTML.
In addition to the HOWTOs, there are a multitude of mini-HOWTOs on
short, specific subjects.
<SECT>Where Can I Get Linux HOWTOs?
<p>
HOWTOs can be retrieved via anonymous FTP from the following
sites:

Many <url url="http://www.linuxdoc.org/mirrors.html"
name="mirror sites"> mirror the HTML files.
<tt/www.linuxdoc.org/ is heavily used, so please use a mirror
site if possible.
HOWTOs are also posted towards the beginning of the month
to the Usenet newsgroup
<tt/comp.os.linux.answers/. There is a tool called
<URL URL="ftp://metalab.unc.edu/pub/Linux/system/news/misc/"
NAME="NewstoHOWTO">
that will assemble the postings.

<SECT1>Special HOWTOs
<P>
The <EM/High Availability HOWTO/, by Harald Milz &lt;hm@seneca.muc.de&gt; is available at <TT><HTMLURL
URL="http://metalab.unc.edu/pub/Linux/ALPHA/linux-ha/High-Availability-HOWTO.html" NAME="http://metalab.unc.edu/pub/Linux/ALPHA/linux-ha/High-Availability-HOWTO.html"></TT>. It is not included with the HOWTO collection because it relies
on figures and cannot be distributed in all supported formats.
<P>
The <EM/Graphics mini-HOWTO/, by Michael J. Hammel &lt;mjhammel@graphics-muse.org&gt; is available
at <TT><HTMLURL
URL="http://www.graphics-muse.org/linux/lgh.html" NAME="http://www.graphics-muse.org/linux/lgh.html"></TT>. It is not included with the HOWTO collection because it needs to use a lot of images, which don't translate to other output formats.
<SECT1>Unmaintained HOWTOs
<P>
There are a number of unmaintained documents, which can be found at:
<TT><HTMLURL URL="http://metalab.unc.edu/pub/Linux/docs/HOWTO/unmaintained/" NAME="http://metalab.unc.edu/pub/Linux/docs/HOWTO/unmaintained/"></TT>.
<P>
These are kept around since old documentation is sometimes better than
none. However, you should <EM>be aware that you are reading old
documentation</EM>.
If the date tag is too old, please consider the HOWTO as unmaintained.
However, there are exceptions, such as old programs (for ex UUCP HOWTO) or
not-so-hot topics (for ex AX-25 HOWTO).
<sect>Writing and Submitting a HOWTO
<p>
If you are interested in writing or maintaining a HOWTO,
please get in touch with us <bf/FIRST!!!/ at
<tt><htmlurl url="mailto:ldp-discuss@lists.linuxdoc.org"
name="ldp-discuss@lists.linuxdoc.org"></tt>.
If you want to maintain a unmaintained HOWTO, please also get in
touch with the former author.
<p>
Here are a few guidelines that you should follow when writing a HOWTO:
<itemize>
<item>Try to use meaningful structure and organization, and write
clearly. Remember that many of the people reading HOWTOs do not
speak English as their first language.
<item>If you are writing a HOWTO, you <EM/must/ use the SGML-Tools
package, available from
<TT><HTMLURL URL="http://www.sgmltools.org/"
NAME="http://www.sgmltools.org/"></TT>,
to format the HOWTO. This package allows us to produce HTML,
LaTeX (for DVI and PostScript), plain text and DocBook sgml from a
single source document, and was designed specifically for the
HOWTOs. This also gives all of the HOWTOs a uniform look. It is
very important that you format and review the output of the
formatting in PostScript, plain text and HTML.
<item>Make sure that all of the information is correct. I can't
stress this enough. When in doubt, speculate, but make it clear that
you're only guessing.
<item>Make sure that you are covering the most recent version of the
available software. Also, be sure to include full instructions
on where software can be downloaded from (FTP site name, full
pathname), and the current version number and release date of the
software.
<item>Include an FAQ section at the end, if appropriate. Many HOWTO
documents need an ``FAQ'' or ``Common Problems'' section to cover
information which can't be covered in the regular text.
<item>Use other HOWTOs a model! The SGML source to
the HOWTOs is available on Linux FTP sites. In addition, have a look
at the <URL URL="http://metalab.unc.edu/godoy/using-docbook/using-docbook.html"
NAME="Using DocBook Guide">, the HOWTO-HOWTO, the LDP manifesto and
the LDP license guide.
<item>Make sure that your name, email address, date, and a version
number is near the beginning of the document. You could also include
WWW addresses and a snail mail address if you want. The standard
header is:
<VERB>
Title
Author's name and email address
Version number and date
</VERB>
for example:
<VERB>
The Linux HOWTO Index
by Tim Bynum
v2.10.29, 31 July 1997
</VERB>
<item>Lastly, be prepared to receive questions and comments about
your writing. There are several hundreds of accesses to the
HOWTO collection every day from around the world!
</itemize>
After you have written the HOWTO, mail the SGML source to us at
<tt><htmlurl url="mailto:ldp-submit@lists.linuxdoc.org"
name="ldp-submit@lists.linuxdoc.org"></tt>.
It is <EM/important/ that you go through us when submitting a HOWTO, as
we maintain the archives and need to keep track of what HOWTOs
are being written and who is doing what.
Then, all you have to do is send me periodic updates whenever
appropriate.
