Time for more good news:
|
|
|
|
Increasing the LDP profile has been on the minds of many in this
|
|
list and I started making some contacts.
|
|
|
|
Linux Weekly News (LWN) <A HREF="http://lwn.net/">http://lwn.net/</A> is a weekly zine
|
|
publishing news on and related to Linux, that are thorough
|
|
and comprehensive. New issues come on every Thursday and they
|
|
also have a daily section.
|
|
|
|
It is split into the following sections:
|
|
- Security
|
|
- Kernel
|
|
- Distributions
|
|
- Development
|
|
- Commerce
|
|
- Linux in the news
|
|
- Announcements
|
|
|
|
Under the development section you will find subsections on
|
|
topics like Education, Search engines and more and I felt
|
|
a small section on LDP could fit in.
|
|
|
|
I contacted LWN and got very positive feedback, so the plan
|
|
now is to submit once or twice a month 5-10 lines on LDP news.
|
|
LWN is one of the more serious publications and I believe
|
|
this will help us increase our profile significantly.
|
|
|
|
The Announcement section is generated from the Freshmeat
|
|
database <A HREF="http://freshmeat.net/">http://freshmeat.net/</A> so I felt we could improve
|
|
coverage even further by a closer cooperation with them.
|
|
|
|
Checking
|
|
<A HREF="http://freshmeat.net/search.php3?query=HOWTO">http://freshmeat.net/search.php3?query=HOWTO</A>
|
|
you will see many have registered already and you will see
|
|
a few more intersting features:
|
|
- automatic announcements
|
|
- automatic tracking
|
|
- web log feedback
|
|
- search engine integration
|
|
and more.
|
|
|
|
So I contacted Freshmeat and have heard nothing since.
|
|
I hoped we could add links to Debian style bug tracking
|
|
since the increased profile is likely to generate a lot
|
|
more traffic than we have seen up to now. If the LDP
|
|
could interface directly with Freshmeat it would be
|
|
saving the authors some work.
|
|
|
|
|
|
So that is the status up to now.
|
|
|
|
You know, I really like feedback on this. Go on, you can
|
|
do it. I keep proposing a few things now and then and it
|
|
all ends in thundering silence. I cannot pretend to
|
|
represent all of you authors out there and I had hoped to
|
|
see some comments before I proceeded. I hope you can make
|
|
some comments on what has been done up to now and how you
|
|
feel we should proceed from here
|
|
|
|
Regards,
|
