Hey all. This isn't exactly apropos to this issue, but I saw "Qtractor" mentioned and figured I would mention this: I recently completed about 100 pages of Qtractor documentation (licensed under the GNU Free Documentation, of course). It's available on qtractor.sourceforge.net but I also maintain all of the docbook source code (and by default I use Publican xsl, and I borrowed a lot from the Publican infrastructure, so the code should be near-Publican ready) on gitorious.org/slackermedia It seems it can't become a part of the official guide since Qtractor isn't an official package, but in the future, if it does, now you know where to find existing documentation :-) -- klaatu > Hi: > > If I understand you correctly, we: > (A) already have that (see link below), and > (B) are not supposed to have it. > > https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/Fedora/16/html/Musicians_Guide/chap-Mu > sicians_Guide-Planet_CCRMA_at_Home.html > > Official Fedora documentation is only supposed to document packages in > the official Fedora repository.
