Date: Tue, 3 Apr 2007 08:15:58 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <3e1162e60704030815n5ddcf47m9ec191023db3fee3@mail.gmail.com> (raw)
I'd like to help out with this...
I think the wiki could do with more examples around setting up NFS
clients/servers, aquarela usage, dedicated mail servers.
Does anyone think this is a bad idea? I mean, I know we're supposed
to be able to read the man pages and just be successful, but I still
have a lot of trial and error, and often no success (like with
aquarela).
Does having tons of shortcuts in the wiki discourage people from
reading the man pages, and is that a bad thing, or does it just
comfort new users with HOWTO's to get started on Plan 9?
Just a thought. Seems like more examples would be a good thing.
