LDP Weekly News
2002-04-09

   by David Merrill

New Domain Name

   The Linux Documentation Project has a new domain name. You can now
   find the LDP on the web at www.tldp.org.

   This name change came about due to some difficulties with the
   linuxdoc.org domain name. In order to have clear rights to the domain
   name, the LDP had to relocate its primary services site. You can still
   reach the LDP by pointing your browser to www.linuxdoc.org, but you
   will be redirected to www.tldp.org. This move may come as a surprise
   for many LDP faithful, but the majority of the staff believed that the
   change was necessary to assure that the LDP would be available for the
   next wave of new Linux users.

   Our mailing lists, cvs, and other bits and pieces are being gradually
   updated to recognize the new domain, so for awhile people will see
   both domains being used. I'll post more information on the status of
   the domain updates as it becomes available.

In one piece of email people were suggesting that Office had to work equally
well with all browsers and that we shouldn't force Office users to use our
browser. This is wrong and I wanted to correct this.
