Chris Very cool, and welcome. We could really use some help in documenting systemd. That is one of the larger recent innovations, and we have precious little written about it. I think you will find Docbook/Publican really isn't much of a barrier, and if you capture the plain text in emacs you are well on the way. An alternative would be to capture your text on the wiki. That way it would be easy to share and have others review. We have wiki to DocBook conversion tools, but frankly, conversion from plain text is probably easier, but it is a little harder to share. Stop by the IRC channel if you get a chance and say hi. I would say come to our weekly IRC meetings, but we are changing the time and I'm not sure exactly where we are in that process. We have been meeting Wednesday at 2300Z, but we are moving that to a time a little more appealing to Europeans; I'm just not sure when we are making the move. Again, welcome. --McD On Mon, 2011-07-25 at 15:59 +0200, Chris Sederqvist wrote: > Hi! > > I'm a 35 year old guy from Norway.I've worked in different areas of the > IT industry since 1995, focusing mainly on networking, server > management and computer security.
