The James Zaldivar interview is probably about a year old now??? So I guess it will be a surprise :laugh:

BTW The one ke4nt1 was referring to above is called "A comparison of Three Linux Live CDs"

Here's the URL http://www.distrowatch.com/?newsid=01789#0

Anyway great work! Looks like you may have iniated another DSL review.

Cheers

As a follow-up to my previous note.

I've had experience writing mini tutorials for everyday work.  They usually consist of high level walk throughs of what to type, click and look for in M$ Windows systems.

My style is to keep things simple and to the point, and of course helpful.

I'm going to write a how-to from start to finish of popping a CD with DSL in and then getting to browse and shutting the system down.

I think individual how-tos for specific applications are necessary as well, especially since I have no idea how to get started on some apps and end up spending hours looking through different online documentation.

All the Best,
optixz


Sounds perfect! Anything that's simple to read and provides a broad overview will make DSL more accessable (and help those who can't get to the forums for one reason or another).

Perhaps a poll or questionnaire would help highlight what are the main challenges someone faces when using DSL for the first time ......???

Cheers

I haven't looked at the on disk documentation in a while and got to look at it on the 0.7.3 today.  Looks like I will focus on just text for now and build from there.  The on disk documentation is great by the way, it has answered several of my previous questions.

There were many changes, corrections, and useful additions
made to the "Getting Started" page , usually seen in the Dillo browser.
