Development in the world of Linux takes place at an incredible speed and it
|
|
can be difficult to keep abreast with the latest development. This HOWTO
|
|
gives you a few guidelines on how to get the information you need, fast and
|
|
efficiently. Most are quite familiar with using the World Wide Web (WWW)
|
|
and Usenet News but as will be shown here there are many other methods that
|
|
can be as good or even better.

<P>
|
|
<P>There are now many new translations available and special thanks go
|
|
