Ha, it's free to use but not open source.  But maybe some other editor.


I've had great success with xmlmind and it's what I used to write
the multipath chapter. I tried numerous clients (can't recall)
leading up to this choice, none of them came close.

Thanks for your feedback William.  The hope is that we _will_ be
backporting fixes to old LTS guides in batches (I'm personally committed
to doing this).  All we need are reported bugs.  I'm going to rescind on
my chosen terminology of 'Rolling Release' as I've been informed that
this may be misleading due to the raucous caused during the Ubuntu
rolling release proposal.  Re XML, I'm not aware of changing away from
this format.  However, I'm supposed to be testing an XML client that
might make peoples' lives easier.  Do you feel like looking at it?:

I think this a great idea. I run all LTS servers and I often just look at
the most recent serverguide for up to date stuff because the LTS one is
usually missing 6+ months of fixes.

William

p.s

Any chance we can switch to Markdown or Restructed text? I've contributed a
few times before and I would really appreciate it if I didn't have to work
with XML.

Blueprint: Ubuntu Server Guide development (LTS only)

2013-07-16 Thread Peter Matulis
Hi, I have created a blueprint [1] that affects the Ubuntu Server Guide
development schedule.  After several years of observation both Doug
Smythies and I have decided it makes more sense to publish the Guide for
LTS releases only.  There would be occasional (unofficial) publications
of the current development branch (snapshots).  If this sounds to you
like the rolling release model you are correct, this is what we are
proposing.  Other changes include relaxing the string freeze and
translation schedules.  I hope to see you there.
