| = The Linux Documentation Project web site = The Linux Documentation Project, in short LDP or tldp (according to his domain name) is a very long standing project about documenting all the aspects of Linux.

This part is aimed to be the LDP workshop, where the new documents are written and where old ones are updated. Of course any people willing to write with docbook/linuxdoc is allowed to, but the other can use the power and friendlyness of our wiki to do so.
