Could anyone comment on how this compares to The Linux Documentation Project <http://tldp.org/>? It seems like there's a lot of overlap in objective. Why was it necessary to create a competing project (if it is competing) rather than combine effort on expanding TLDP?

I had the same thought. TLDP is how I got PPP working on my 28.8k modem when I first installed RedHat in 1999, so maybe the information on TLDP is out of date?

It'd be nice if someone gave a shot at patching rather than forking, for once. It's not like the problem with finding documentation about Linux and its ecosystem was the lack of options.
