Week 35 - Linux Security Guide and Linux Deployment Guide

Where is this, now?  I, too, was confused by the generic documentation
path.  While certain items are universal, there is a lot of specific
items that I've included in the Fedora Security Guide (on the wiki) that
would NOT work in Ubuntu.  There are areas where the guide is quite
specific with commands and such.  How is this handled in this new approach?


Thanks,
Eric
