Re-iterating my previous comments and perhaps clarifying them:

I would like to see a structure that allows us course providers to easily
state which part of LPI 101, LPI 102, LPI 201, etc, a particular course
covers.

Now, LPI 101 and 102 are done, so we have to live with that, but a better
job can be done for LPI 2xx.

This helps LPI gain more acceptance and credibility as the ONLY Linux
certification that is worth while, especially if all the coureware
providers are providing courseware with a good match with the LPI
objectives etc.

It also makes it easier for us courseware providers to come up with
something :-)

While I think the following is a good start, I have problems with it, some
of which are perhaps problems with the results of the level 2 objectives.

Why is there no material here on journalling file systems, like ReiserFS,
XFS, EXT-3, etc?

I think the material on kernel configuration is a separate item, and may
require a half a day or a day in coverage in any serious course.

I would put these into a separate category of scripting, but perhaps leave
it here. It would include shell scripting, Perl scripts, AWK and sed ...

Ummm, this should be package handling, although perhaps that is just a
difference in English usage between the writer and I. However, I thought
this had to do with networking.

I see this as more of a security issue. Sure, it is a standalone daemon,
but I would group it with security.
