LDP Weekly News
2002-04-09
by David Merrill
This name change came about due to some
difficulties with the linuxdoc.org domain name. In order to have clear rights
to the domain name, the LDP had to relocate its primary services site. You
can still reach the LDP by pointing your browser to
www.linuxdoc.org, but you will be redirected to www.tldp.org. This
move may come as a surprise for many LDP faithful, but the majority of the
staff believed that the change was necessary to assure that the LDP would
be available for the next wave of new Linux users.
Our mailing lists, cvs, and other bits and pieces are being gradually updated
to recognize the new domain, so for awhile people will see both domains being used.
I'll post more information on the status of the domain updates as it becomes available.
These documents have been abandoned by their maintainers and many of them
have not been updated in some time.
If you're willing to become the maintainer for one of them, please
join the LDP discussion list at
lists.tldp.org
and post a message indicating your interest.
The Linux Documentation Project is developing free, high quality documentation
for the GNU/Linux operating system. This includes the creation of HOWTOs and Guides,
and collaboration with other documentation groups.
If you've always wanted to help Linux reach
Total World Domination(tm), but you're not a programmer,
there's still something you can do. Help the LDP!
The LDP keeps a page of resources for authors at
