Looking for help: SELinux user guide follow up

by Dominick Grift

Hey y'all, I am a member of the Fedora SELinux community. I helped out a bit with SELinux user guide by Murray Mcallistar. I noticed some interest for advanced selinux administration and i had this i idea of documenting it. I am a terrible copy -writer but i know a little bit about the matter (i also govern, among-st others, what your apps can do on your systems probably) I have been walking around with some ideas about some document for people wanting to learn about advanced SELinux topics. Basically its all in my mind but it needs organizing and it needs to be checked. I've been picking chapters of this "to be written doc" and telling them to people coming to me wanting to learn for about a few years now, and i am kind of tired of telling the same story over and over again. So i would like to be able to point them to somewhere instead. As said the problem is that i cannot organize my data and my story might diverge from the official data in minor ways. But anyways i started a doc called "selinux adminstration guide" here: http://fedorapeople.org/gitweb?p=domg472/public_git/SELinux_Administratio... and i have been looking for help for a long time. It seems i am asking for much, and i guess in a way i am. Because i just cannot write my thoughts down properly (English isn't my first language) and i am having troubles organizing my docs). Basically all i can do is provide technical information or point to official docs. Yet i am somehow still determined to share my knowledge and so i am here now. I am wondering if anyone is willing to help me make this happen. Help me share this knowledge with the community, So that i do not have to tell the story over and over again to each individual. I would need some serious guidance but it we could do this in a slow pace. I wrote an outline to what i think would make a decent chapter. I added links to official documentation about topics discussed. I Guess the first step would be to get a proper intro. I also made an start to want might be a second chapter. Truth be told i do not know how the docs community works, writing this doc is something i wanted to do for a long time but it is not my first priority. Can you tell me what steps you would take if you were in my shoes? E.g. I have the knowledge (or know where to retrieve it), I have this whole doc envisioned in my mind, but i cannot put the pieces together or organize it to make it work. I just do not have the experience. Thank you for your guidance, dgrift(domg472) @ #fedora-selinux -- Dominick Grift

Docs Project Leader

by Zach Oglesby

As it has been very apparent the last few week, I have not been around nor have I been able to keep up with everything going on. I took over as the Docs Lead because Eric was very busy and was unable to devote the time needed to Docs and now it appears that I am in the same boat. It is not right for me to hold this title if I can't give the team the time that is deserved. So I will put it out there that if anyone would like to take over this position, now would be a good time to bring it up, especially since we are still very early in the cycle. -- Zach Oglesby oglesbyzm(a)gmail.com

Docs Meeting Tonight

by John J. McDonough

We've missed out on a number of meetings lately, and there have been a few things I think we want to talk about (if we can get the necessary folks on board). Some just general FYI. - Bunches of new redirects - What is the status of the Docs build system? (nb) - Where are we on the Fedora 15/Publican/PDF bug? (rudi) - What can we do about the UG (jhradilek) Probably more, since its been so long, but that should be enough. Please try to be there. https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Docs_Project_meetings --McD

Hey everyone, decided to join the Fedora Doc Project. I am looking forward to releasing the Resource Management Guide for Fedora any time now. This will be it's first release ever (for Fedora that is)! Hopefully it will be useful to someone and I'd love a big chunk of feedback, so feel free. I also work closely with jhradilek on the Deployment Guide and am happy to provide help where needed ;) DocBook, Git, SVN, Bash, huge regex fan, a bit of Java, are, among others, some of my "computer skills". I am very passionate about IT security and love a good crypto challenge ;) Glad to be a part of this Project! -- Martin Prpič Associate Content Author | Red Hat, Inc. Brno, Czech Republic
