<p>M. Lee Cooper had <a href="http://lists.tldp.org/index.cgi?1:mss:4671:200307:gogpemcpgmjdagijfkka" target="_top">suggestions for LDP study guides</a>. Such a guide would consist of a reading list
|
|
of LDP documents, HOWTOs and Guides, on each topic. Chris Karkas said that <a href="http://lists.tldp.org/index.cgi?1:mss:4675:200307:abhpkacpeilgccjkfapm" target="_top">re-indexing the HOWTOs</a>
|
|
under various criterion would be of added value. However, a <a href="http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/HOWTO-INDEX/categories.html" target="_top">categorized list of HOWTOs</a> is already available.</p>
