Debian Handbook
I haven't read this one yet, but I've been noticing a big improvement on the quality of documentation around Squeeze. Maybe I'm just being subjective here, but I don't recall Lenny's being as well presented.
Extra info around the book can be found here: http://debian-handbook.info/
It's out?! AWESOME! I've sponsored the translation (30euros) and plan to read/learn the entire thing. This is GREAT news for Debian and Linux in general.
10 minutes browsing through the handbook and I already found great info that I did not know:
The Debian package format is designed so that its content may be extracted on any Unix system that has the classic commands ar, tar, and gzip. This seemingly trivial property is important for portability and disaster recovery.
Hoping it will approach the quality of the formidable FreeBSD handbook. That would be great!
One comprehensive quality source of administration information. Yes please!
I've been waiting for Linux distributions to pick up the idea behind FreeBSD's handbook (http://freebsd.org/handbook) which is an absolutely fantastic resource that has helped me even as a veteran FreeBSD user make sure I had all my ducks in a row before making modifications to my system.
Has anyone had a chance to read this yet? I've heard many things ago it. Either way, this is a great thing for Debian.
There used to be a handbook at debian.org, are they the same thing? As always, decent document is great for the project.
It's unfortunate that the domain name is so spammy looking.
