It could be done in a modular way, and that is what we've been doing, working to build up the pieces that could be an All-In-One Guide. One positive to this approach is, an All-In-One Guide is far more interesting output for one's work than, for example, "How To Configure Printers" ... all work is done with the same contribution of a printer how-to, but the result is a whole that is greater than the sum of its parts. One negative is that such a guide requires a quantity of contributors that this project has yet to provide. Seven to ten very interested, hard working people plus regular contributors, all of whom have to be dedicated to keeping the content alive. All of whom could see their work being published. So, this negative points to the potential positives. :) > And most importantly, it > needs to be printable. See the other thread about FOP and gcjclasspath; we can help move down this route to PDF production. - Karsten -- Karsten Wade, RHCE, 108 Editor ^ Fedora Documentation Project Sr. Developer Relations Mgr. | fedoraproject.org/wiki/DocsProject quaid.108.redhat.com | gpg key: AD0E0C41 ////////////////////////////////// \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\
