I would prefer if each page did not have some "These are user notes, use at your own risk, ..." disclaimer. This would really clutter the page. I think it would be sufficient if there was one disclaimer at the beginning of the book about the Wiki links. Or, that if each Wiki page had a similar header that you would see when following the link. > they should > consider that anything suggested by the information on the link > should be carefully considered if it may or may not work for > you. Since the wiki will have (I think) tighter control on who can edit, then the responsibility should fall to the wiki writer. The notes on the wiki should clearly spell out who the intended audience is. And I don't think that'll be a problem. I don't see a problem with a person seeing the User Notes link with no explanation directly after the Introduction. So they follow one link? If the Notes are written well, they'll know right away whether the info is for them and act accordingly. Combine this with some stock warning in the beginning of the book, and I think it's pretty safe. -- Dan -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/blfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
