Debian related stuff

This page is where I expect to maintain my Debian related stuff. Backported packages, documentation, transitional files and everything which is related to Debian should be expected to be found here.

SGML

Some docs I have been writing and are not finished yet. I'm writing them using SGML and the DebianDoc DTD. There were some discussions inside Debian between people arguing about migrating to DocBook as the new standard for official Debian documentation. As it's not official yet and not a standard adopted by everyone inside Debian I will keep writing things using DebianDoc.

It's available here.


PHP

I'm trying to learn PHP. I did some coding using PHP (nothing professional, tough) some time ago and never touched it again. Now I'm willing to give it a try again, just for fun. Things found here are surely expected to be completely non-functional for anyone else other than me (okay, most of the time it's also not usable to me). It's here only because I needed an easy way to be able to access it from any place. Did I already told you it's only a lot of crap ?

It's available here.
Text

Here you will found some texts I wrote quickly and did not had a chance to convert to any decent format yet.

Foca GNU/Linux IMHO, the best GNU/Linux guide one could ask for. It gives information ranging from computer basics and GNU/Linux concepts and goes as far as talking about computer security, all in an easy to understand language. It's split into three levels to better service users : Beginner, Intermediate and Advanced. It's almost distribution neutral and its contents can be used regardless of the GNU/Linux distribution you use. However, as it is developed under Debian some of its chapters are Debian especific. It's also available as a Debian package (namely focalinux-html or focalinux-text) for those of you who are absolutely against putting anything besides Debian packages into your computers. Brazilian Portuguese only, sorry.

Debian-BR Project Our Brazilian project where we try to improve Debian so it can be desired and used by Brazilian users. We are focused in many areas and we have teams working on Debian website translations, Debian's packages descriptions translations, debconf templates translations, d-i (Debian's next generation installer) translations, Debian specific documentation translations an so on. We have also created some original content aimed at helping users which are migrating from others GNU/Linux distributions to Debian. We communicate mainly using mailing lists ( Debian L10n Portuguese for localization and internalization issues, Debian User Protuguese for users questions and Debian-BR for discussing our project's internal issues), but there's also an IRC channel available on irc.freenode.net named #debian-br where there's always people willing to help novices and to exchange ideas.
