The official effort to write something like this is called the Debian User's Manual, and it would be great if you could help with that. I'm writing a chapter on files, and I'd like to steal some bits from your document if I could. You can see my rough development chapter at: http://student-www.uchicago.edu/users/rhpennin/file-management.sgml Info on the User's Manual as a whole can be found by following the Debian Documentation Project link from the Documentation section of www.debian.org. Anyway, if you're into writing documentation I'd encourage you to help us out with the User's Manual. There are only a few people working on it so far.
