Dear all,
My name is Binh Nguyen. I would like to contribute the
'Linux Dictionary',
(
http://www.tldp.org/LDP/Linux-Dictionary/html/index.html)
to the Fedora Documentation project.
This is an amazing undertaking. Thank you very much for your
contribution.
Looking on the TLDP site, I couldn't find the XML source. I was going
to look at it to help in estimating what it will take you to modify the
guide to fit the Fedora docs project (FDP) requirements.
Have you filled out a feature enhancement report (via
bugzilla.redhat.com)? An overview of the submission process is at:
http://fedora.redhat.com/participate/documentation-quick-start/
You should be able to continue to have a single-source XML for the Linux
Dictionary, with a Makefile that uses the FDP toolchain.
I'm also willing to contribute the 'Linux Dictionary'
to the Fedora Documentation Wiki
provided that you maintain the original front
cover and provide a hyperlink to it. ie. Everything
from,
http://www.tldp.org/LDP/Linux-Dictionary/html/index.html
FDP doesn't maintain a Wiki, as far as I know.
As a side note, I see a dict database available as well. Have you
contacted
dict.org to see if they'd like to include the Linux Dictionary
in their downloads? AIUI, Rik is always looking for good free
dictionaries.
