Red Hat Summit 2007 collected hundreds of Linux users all in one place–many of them experienced Red Hat Certified Engineers® (RHCE). And somewhere between all those smart people walking around–and our video crew shooting footage–the idea for some video tips was born.

Unless you have been living in an underground bunker, you have probably heard of Version Control, and possibly even Subversion (SVN). If you want to get the latest source code to compile it yourself, contribute to an open source project, keep track of files and documents, or work on the same document tree with a team of people, then you will need to use SVN. This article is not meant to be a substitute for the great documentation found at the Subversion website, but is instead meant to act as a quickstart guide to get regular folks over the hump of using SVN. SVN can seem very intimidating with its numerous command line switches and options, but it really isn’t all that complicated with a little practice.

Knowing how to make a product work within a customer’s specialized environment is also a great use of a Red Hat Consultant. » Read more
Free as in, well, free. At least, that’s what the folks at Project Gutenberg believe. They work hard to make as many literary (in a very broad sense of the term) works as possible available in a variety of formats, languages, and media to as many people as possible. They are guided by similar principles that all open source enthusiasts share, that power and information should be available to everyone, not just the elite.
Project Gutenberg grew almost organically with the start of the Internet, starting on July 4, 1971, with the U.S. Declaration of Independence. » Read more
Donald Knuth was wrong.
While it’s true we still need ‘better documentation of programs’ it isn’t true, or it is no longer true, ‘that we can best achieve this by considering programs to be works of literature.’
Huh?
