Since there was no information anywhere on the net for Belgian Linux users, we started to collect stuff that we thought could be important. This HOWTO aims to be the definitive list of all Belgian-related Linux information. If you think not, you have no excuse to complain and certainly not to not contribute. ;)
If you need to know more about the Linux Documentation Project or about Linux HOWTO's, feel free to contact the supervisor Tim Bynum <linux-howto@sunsite.unc.edu>.
Tim Bynum will post the listing to several national and international newsgroups on a monthly basis. In addition, the Belgian HOWTO can be found on the World Wide Web at http://dag.wieers.com/howto/. New versions of the Belgian HOWTO are always placed at this site first, so please be sure to check if the copy you are reading is still up to date!
This document is currently translated in 3 languages (English, Dutch and French), we're trying to keep all three of them in sync, but the English version is the source-document!
The English and Dutch version are maintained by Dag Wie�rs <dag@wieers.com> and is found at: http://dag.wieers.com/howto/.
The French version is maintained by Dany Vanderroost <danyv@euronet.be> and is found at: http://club.euronet.be/dany.vanderroost/howto.html.
