--+ This is extremely unfortunate. I had also noticed this. The one thing the internet lacks is proper authoritative organization. Not that I advocate dictatorship, but it would be nice to have recognized authorities (like www.debian.org) handling a webring or similar. >but folks like kmself (http://www.netcom.com/~kmself) do >occasionally post useful intro/howto/what-the documents that >might qualify... --+ Thanks, I'll add that to the list of resarch items. >> --+ I would like to document my experiences with Debian, >> essay-style, to contribute to the efforts. > >please do! --+ Heh, you might regret that comment later =) >> My gift of finding problems with software will kick in..
