This is the status of the Gentoo Documentation Project. It will be posted
regularly, but not with a static frequency. All questions can be posted to
<mail link="gentoo-doc@gentoo.org">gentoo-doc@gentoo.org</mail> or to
<mail link="swift@gentoo.org">me</mail> personally.
</p>
<p>
The Gentoo Documentation Project, from now on abbreviated to GDP, has its own
project page (just like almost all other Gentoo projects). You can find it at
<uri>http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/gdp</uri>.

<title>New / Updated Documentation</title>
<section>
<body>
<p>
<mail link="pdog4x4@yahoo.com">Joshua Preston</mail> has written a <uri
link="/doc/en/colinux-howto.xml">coLinux HOWTO</uri>. Don't know what coLinux
is? Think UML but for Windows :)
</p>
<p>
The <uri link="/doc/en/handbook">Gentoo Handbook</uri>'s have been updated to
reflect the 2004.1 installation instructions.
</p>
<p>
The <uri link="/doc/en/desktop.xml">Gentoo Desktop Configuration Guide</uri> has
been updated with many thanks to numerous contributions through <uri
link="http://bugs.gentoo.org">bugzilla</uri>.
</p>
<p>
The <uri link="/doc/en/udev-guide.xml">uDev Guide</uri> is updated to reflect
the new baselayout (which is in stable) and with a new section on Q&A.
</p>
<p>
The <uri link="/doc/en/uml.xml">UML Guide</uri> is updated to be usable again :)
</p>
<p>
The <uri link="/doc/en/gentoo-security.xml">Gentoo Security Guide</uri> now has
a section about <c>glsa-check</c> in it.

<title>Gentoo Handbook part III</title>
<section>
<body>
<p>
The third part of the Gentoo Handbook is progressing slowly. Currently, we have
the following chapters ready:
</p>
<ul>
<li>
<uri link="/doc/en/handbook/draft/desktop.xml?part=1&chap=1">
The X Server
</uri>, which covers installation and configuration of the Xorg X Server
</li>
<li>
<uri link="/doc/en/handbook/draft/desktop.xml?part=1&chap=2">
The K Desktop Environment
</uri> in which you learn how to install and configure KDE
</li>
<li>
<uri link="/doc/en/handbook/draft/desktop.xml?part=1&chap=3">
The GNOME Environment
</uri> in which you learn how to install and configure GNOME
</li>
<li>
<uri link="/doc/en/handbook/draft/desktop.xml?part=1&chap=4">
The various Window Managers
</uri> which contains tips and tricks for Fluxbox, OpenBox and is open for
suggestions regarding other window managers :)
</li>
<li>
<uri link="/doc/en/handbook/draft/desktop.xml?part=1&chap=5">
Getting Sound to Work
</uri>, an improved version of our <uri link="/doc/en/alsa-guide.xml">ALSA
Guide</uri>
</li>
<li>
<uri link="/doc/en/handbook/draft/desktop.xml?part=1&chap=6">
What about 3D Acceleration
</uri> which is the migration of our <uri link="/doc/en/dri-howto.xml">DRI
Howto</uri> into the Gentoo Handbook
</li>
</ul>
<p>
The only chapter remaining is called <uri
link="/doc/en/handbook/draft/desktop.xml?part=1&chap=7">Integrating in a
Network</uri> and should focus on how users can integrate their Gentoo system in
a Windows environment, providing interoptability using SAMBA.
</p>
<p>
The main idea is to release this third part as "official" (after a few QA
measures) and add additional chapters when deemed appropriate. This because we
don't want to keep the documentation hidden from the users, while we know that
there are still many subjects regarding desktop configuration that aren't
covered yet.
