Hands up from this end. The current handbook is very large, if it
keeps growing (and come one everyone, we know it will) then eventually
it shall become the ``big book noone likes to carry'' or some other
hefty collection of information. A users section containing
information on various things like:
PPP for the end user
Mail for the end user
Installing FreeBSD (end users in mind)
Configureing FreeBSD (again, end users)
Ports
Simple tasks
Networking for the End User.
And so on, each book should contain:
Ports and packages installation
System Installation and Configuration
Rebuilding your Kernel
Staying up to date *cutting edge* (some people may want this)
And the back of these books (printed versions) and online listings
should contain the information that is presented within, so that
people know exactly what they are getting...
I'll help in whatever way its needed, lets just stop talking and start
doing!
