\section{The Linux Documentation Project}

The Linux Documentation Project, or LDP, is a loose team of writers,
proofreaders, and editors who are working together to provide complete
documentation for the Linux operating system.  The overall
coordinator of the project is Matt Welsh, who is aided by Lars
Wirzenius and Michael~K.\ Johnson.

This manual is one in a set of several being distributed by the LDP,
including a Linux Users' Guide, System Administrators' Guide, Network
Administrators' Guide, and Kernel Hackers' Guide. These manuals are
all available in \LaTeX\ source format, .dvi format, and postscript
output by anonymous FTP from {\tt sunsite.unc.edu}, in the directory {\tt
/pub/Linux/docs/LDP}, and from {\tt tsx-11.mit.edu}, in the
directory {\tt /pub/linux/docs/guides}.

We encourage anyone with a penchant for writing or editing to join us in
improving Linux documentation. If you have Internet e-mail access, you can
contact Matt Welsh at \verb|mdw@sunsite.unc.edu|.
