Larry and John recently inquired about adding a links page to the site. I
certainly agree with the concept, but I do not want
yet-another-page-full-o-links. They get really old, and after link pages get
to a certain size they are for all purposes useless for most users.
So I'd like everyone to voice their thoughts on how to best organize a links
page.
Should we have a link maintainer? Someone who periodically confirms links
are not dead, still contains the same content/mission, etc? That would be
nice, but chances are that will fall on either me or John, and I doubt
either of us have the time. Any other volunteers?
Also, I may make a few requirements for getting a link added to the page.
Two obvious ones: be related to Linux or UNIX in some way and contain more
than a few simple pages of information. In addition, I will probably require
the submitter to write a three or four sentence [printable and well written]
overview of the link in his/her own words, and tag each link with the
submitter's name.
Any other thoughts?
What information should be on each link? Site name, URL, description, date
link added, possibly auto-expire date, etc?
Regards, Dustin
