Terry, So, we have CVS at inceptionos.org. I assume it is located at cvs.inceptionos.org? Kelledin, About following the LSB, are we using the 1.0 spec or the 1.1 spec...preferably it is 1.1? I am just bringing this up, because as you know we should keep following the spec even when a new one comes out.

Kelledin, We should also make the document to HTML as well, and host it on the web site to.

We will do - I write .sgml files that can be converted to html/txt & pdf files using the docbook tools. I'll make sure the documents are avaliable in all four formats.

Terry, We can't use SF's CVS for the project, because I don't think they'd let us host a complete Linux distro on their servers like that. So, it would be better to set one up for our site at cvs.inceptionos.org Thanks, Michael On Sun, 8 Sep 2002 21:18:58 +0100, "Terry Churchill" <te...@do...> said: > Michael Lauzon <inc...@my...> Said: >=20 > > So, we have CVS at inceptionos.org.

Terry, I have yet to take a look at a SGML document, I've seen XML documents...so they must not be all that different to a certain extent; so when you're finished with the document I'll take a look at it in SGML format.

Kelledin, Don't know how I could have missed that about the LSB...of course the mailing list is basically dead for the LSB....
