Hi Tom, guys, Yes, it is probably a very good solution to provide links to other external documentation.
When I originally re-worked the Linux readme and the Linux installation instructions, I especially had in mind the idea of providing comprehensive instructions for inexpert users. But covering Linux in such instructions is more complicated than other operating systems, because of the multiple distributions that need to be covered. However, I have to admit that the resulting installation guides and the readme probably constitute as much of a barrier to easy installation for a newbie as the complexity (for a newbie) of a command-line installation process. So a re-working is definitely necessary. What we currently have is rather "spaghetti code-like", especially after all the comments at the time were worked into the drafts. -- David Nelson -- Unsubscribe instructions: E-mail to [email protected] Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/documentation/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted
