FWIW, I've heard consistent interest ... for about three years ... from
across various distros ... to find a way for us all to work from some
kind of common base.

OTOH, Spot (and others) have reminded me that the differences between
distros outweigh the similarities.

Maybe ... maybe we need to coordinate with other distros to put a common
front-end on TLDP to allow us all to update it, and use it as a common
docbase?  We can use any content that is GPL, afaik, although it's not
our preferred license for documentation.  The majority of TLDP is still
GPL, right?
