Re: Wiki ?

 

I agree!

A wiki is ultimately where I would like to get this info too.  The main
issue (I believe) is that we're all on different distros.  So, although I
use Ubuntu, and will eventually document my journey on getting everything
going on my Vaio, it would hardly benefit as many as a non distro specific
wiki or wikipedia document would, with more general directions than for one
specific distro.

I would go as far to say that if we had enough of a cult-like following, we
could even go more to a full member site type layout.  IBM Thinkpads often
get that type of attention from Linux users.
http://www.thinkwiki.org/wiki/ThinkWiki (just as an example, I believe there
are more)

The issues I think we'd find would be the following:
1)  We'd have to keep that information fresh.  Good adminstration skills
necessary.
2)  Let's setup a poll somehow and see who's on what distro before building
out a wiki or site layout.

If you have a good idea of where to host, or you will be making one for your
distro, please let us know!  At the very least we'd link back to it.

I'd love to help you in any way I can.
