<p>FreeBSD's documentation falls into three basic categories:</p>
|
|
|
|
<ol>
|
|
<li><p><a href="http://www.FreeBSD.org/cgi/man.cgi"><b>The manual pages</b></a></p>
|
|
|
|
<p>The Project does not really concern itself with these, since
|
|
they are a part of the base system. The exception to this is the
|
|
Japanese team, who are translating them. There is no reason other
|
|
volunteers could not step in to translate the manual pages to other
|
|
languages as well.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>That is not to say that the manual pages are unimportant, far from
|
|
it. It is just that they are intimately tied to specific systems of
|
|
FreeBSD, and most of the time the best person to write the manual
|
|
page is the person that wrote that part of FreeBSD.</p></li>
|
|
|
|
<li><p><a href="../docs.html#books"><b>The Books</b></a></p>
|
|
|
|
<p>The project has a large amount of documentation that is "book
|
|
length", or becoming that way. These include the FreeBSD FAQ and
|
|
the FreeBSD Handbook.</p>
|
|
|
|
<li><p><a href="../docs.html#articles"><b>The Articles</b></a></p>
|
|
|
|
<p>FreeBSD has a wealth of information available in shorter, article
|
|
form -- similar to the tutorials or HOWTO documentation of other
|
|
projects.</p>
