Three things: a) See <http://wiki.centos.org/HowToContribute/EditingCentOSWiki> - can you drop the "I will discuss", "I am aware" and rewrite it to something more general? The way it's written doesn't fit the style of the rest on the wiki. b) After the repository adding steps: Please make people aware of the priorities plugin and put at least a link to <http://wiki.centos.org/PackageManagement/Yum/Priorities> in your write up - we don't want people complaining about one of those repositories having eaten their dogs ... c) Could you explain in a little more detail what your "yum -y install" does to a users machine? And please drop the "-y" from that command in your writeup? Other than that: Yes, in my opinion let us put that on the wiki. Oh, two other things: What is your account name on the wiki? NickSklav, I presume? And: We are going to put the "lyrics" on the wiki under a <http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0/> Creative Commons Attribution-Share Alike 3.0 license as soon as I figure out on how to do that correctly in moin. You have to say "yes" to that :) Cheers, Ralph -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
