Guide To ... (an idea)
« on: May 06, 2005, 01:02 PM »
If some of our memebrs had any interest in writing some long "how to" guides, i'd be delighted to set up a special section for them and provide web hosting, etc.

ie like "Guide To Setting Up Your Own Web Server", etc.  anything to do with software.

there's no point in us reproducing what already exists, so we'd only want to make a how to do something if it was a better guide than could be found elsewhere, so we'd only want really comprehensive friendly guides with lots of pictures, etc.  kind of a tall order, but let me know if you are interested.

another alternative would be just a page or section of the forum where we could collect links to the Best offsite How To Guides relating to software...

I have an in-depth how-to for BPFTP Server with some images I made.  I'd be happy for you to mirror it here if you like.

sounds good - and especially if bftpd wins best ftp server then that would be fantastic.
