Use the register link.  One major feature is a wiki that users with 
appropriate permissions can edit.

For more info, see http://trac.edgewall.org/

BTW, for those inclined, there is also irc.linuxfromscratch.org.

 There are different user IDs on the LFS and BLFS parts of the wiki.
I think Bruce was just asking you to tell him, off-list what your
user ID is, and if you want to do this in the LFS or BLFS wiki - but
I could be wrong.

Drew, I'm in the same boat as you. I'm grateful that Bruce will allow us 
to use it, but I really don't think it's the appropriate venue for 
something like a blog. The discussions that you, Tim and I are having 
really look more like that than developing a specific structure for 
others to use. I know that some of the things on the wiki right now are 
"user notes," with definite recommendations for switches and honing the 
installation of a particular package. Other than the hint as it 
currently exists, I don't think we have anything similar to what I just 
described. Maybe we do, but this is beyond my expertise.

I've been watching the various posts today and was waiting until 
tomorrow to write anything of my own. Domestic project. :) I think that 
you, Tim and I, at least, need to have a plan, put something useable in 
place and then fine tune it. If I'm not mistaken, that's the function of 
trac.

I'll give you a good example. There's Tim's concept of making install 
directories by using the script. He's used it "ad hoc," as he says, and 
I've never used it. Right now I'm about 25% through my manual rebuild of

Actually, I think the proper venue is lfs-dev and not lfs-support.
If y'all mosey over there, it would be great.

Tim and Drew, would you mind subscribing to lfs-dev, if you're not 
already. I'll continue the discussion from that list.

Still, users' notes are very helpful.

Okay, here's a suggestion of, at least, how I think I can contribute:
I will post notes on the packages as I build them/run into trouble.
This is going to take me a while given my other family (wife and two
boys aged 4 and 7 months), but I can persevere. As I run into trouble
on a package (like glibc) I'll post what's going on and document how I
(with help from this group) solve it.
