Yes true These are more or less historic interest document :-) Now that we have "The Debian Administrator's Handbook" https://www.debian.org/doc/user-manuals#debian-handbook and resources such as wikipedia.org, we can skip most of these. Maybe moving these to https://www.debian.org/doc/ddp#other may be an idea. But I am a bit reluctant to make such an action since it labels LDP as old/outdated/... etc. which are all negative. Does someone have any positive attitude change suggestions? Osamu
