recent website changes for docs

1. This has been updated to include a chapter on Emacs and nXML Mode thanks to Gavin Henry, a few other patches/suggestion, and an Index. I also added some brief information on how the index is auto-generated. There are probably other minor fixes as well I can't remember. I have started tagging the files in CVS as I create new versions, so next time I can send out exact diffs for those interested and so you don't have to read it all again to figure out the subtle changes. http://fedora.redhat.com/participate/documentation-guide/ 2. I posted the latest version of the Fedora Jargon Buster. It is in CVS as well, so patches and suggestions are welcome. Thanks to Dave for starting it! http://fedora.redhat.com/docs/jargon-buster/ 3. I posted the beginnings of an FAQ for the Docs Project: http://fedora.redhat.com/participate/documentation-faq/ I hope to start working on the Installation Guide and a "Quick Start" guide for getting started with the docs project this week as well. Regards, Tammy

We can all do bits, If rh can say what bits (big.... small chunks) need doing, we can chip in to make it happen? regards DaveP

I've published the tutorials I'm currently working on at: www.cyber.com.au/users/mikem/fedora-docs This includes: DNS Serving DHCP Serving Mail Serving Web Serving Windows File Serving Secure FTP Serving Proxy Serving NFS Serving They're in progress, so expect that they're missing stuff, but they should provide you with a good idea of where things are going.
