Hello :-)
As jdd, I work with and for openSUSE from the beginning :-).
But now I'm also in charge of the LDP as coordinator (LDP=Linux
Documentation Project).
As you should and may know, the LDP is probably the older Linux
documentation Web site, and the HOWTO origin.
Our HOWTOs are still included in openSUSE (very good, thanks).
Some month agos we noticed that our old staff was wearing, many have
other business, authors are often working on other tasks and the HOWTO
collection was soon to be obsolete.
So we decided to make an effort to prevent this.
This effort is still running and the new Web site become to be visible
:-). See http://wiki.tldp.org.
We try to make the life as easy as possible to authors. Now the HOWTO
authors can submit they work on technical formats (docbook,
linuxdoc...) but also through our wiki as wiki markup, and we are
working on text/html converters
All this need hands and we are really short on this respect. We have
to manage the wiki, write documentations for new authors, browse the
old HOWTOs and see what the authors want to do, found new authors...
So we have to ask for help.
If you have some time spare and you have wiki knowledge, html or
script (bash and python) knowledge, if you have any Linux knowledge
allowing you to review a HOWTO, If you have simply human relation
knowledge to contact previous authors, please answer to me (privately
not to bother this list too much). And thanks!
