LDP - Intro to the Linux Documentation Project, with help, guides and
documents
The Linux Documentation Project (LDP) provides a variety of free documentation
resources including guides, FAQs, HOWTOs, and man-pages to
the Linux community.
The various documents in the LDP archives are maintained by individual
authors, and are listed in the beginning of each HOWTO. If you have any
questions or inputs to a document we encourage you to contact the
authors directly.
The LDP has its own dedicated web site as do many of the various translations
projects which are linked from the main LDP web site at
http://www.LinuxDoc.org/
which you may wish to bookmark.
LDP has a number of mailing lists, mostly of use to authors:
<[email protected]>
Announcements from the LDP project
<[email protected]>
General discussion on the LDP project
To join these lists send a mail with a body of "subscribe" to
<[email protected]> or <ldp-dis-
[email protected]> respectively. These mailing lists are
also archived at the LinuxDoc site.
Most distributions include the HOWTOs and mini-HOWTOs in the installation
/usr/doc/ (most documentation is here)
/usr/share/doc/ (possibly some documentation here)
/usr/doc/HOWTO/ (HOWTO files)
/usr/doc/HOWTO/mini/ (mini-HOWTO files)
