Hi!

I think there are some great documents on /wiki/Docs/Drafts/, but
these are hard to find:

1. <http://fedoraproject.org/>
2. Click "Docs"
3. I might be impatient, but I can't actually find the link to the
drafts (I know it is there somewhere though)
4. phail :-)

Ubuntu:

1. http://www.ubuntu.com/
2. support -> documentation
3. Admire pretty list of documentation that desktop users and
non-Linux people probably want to know.

openSuSE:

1. http://www.opensuse.org/en/
2. Click Discover it
3. Click Documentation (lots of clutter, but I found it easy to find).
4. Nice list of links. Looks pretty
<http://en.opensuse.org/Documentation> rocks!

It seems the Fedora process is too formal and too hung up on having
'professional documentation', that all the useful information gets
left behind on wiki drafts where people aren't going to look. Maybe
instead of the fedora admin guide , the drafts sections could be
turned into mini howtos?

Sorry if I sound grumpy :-)

I would be happy to convert
<http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Docs/Drafts/AdministrationGuide/Permissions>
to DocBook if it could be placed somewhere other than in the drafts
section.

Cheers.
