I've been converting the Gentoo handbook into Plucker format for awhile
now in an automated fashion, and I'd like to expand that to include as
much of the existing Gentoo documentation as possible. I'm not a Gentoo
user (I've been using Linux actively for over a decade now), but a
significant portion of our userbase is.
You can see the results of one of these conversions here:
http://code.plkr.org/gentoo
Is the documentation for Gentoo in a repository somewhere? svn? cvs?
rsync? I'd like to keep my local copy current in a more efficient way,
vs. having to hit the Gentoo mirrors all the time over http to refetch
the same material when it changes or is updated.
If not, would it be feasible to create one? I'd be more than happy to
host it if necessary (I host and maintain dozens of other projects over
at SourceFubar.Net).
I mirror LDP, Wikimedia's projects, Project Gutenberg, CPAN, and quite a
few other things. I'd love to mirror Gentoo's documentation for the
purposes of reconverting it to Plucker regulary.
Let me know, and I'll do what I can to help. I just don't like having to
use http to fetch HTML content on an iterative basis.
Thanks for your time.
