I agree with this in principle, see below.

I agree it is long, but I tried to make it as complete and reliable as possible (almost so a trained monkey can do it). > Thank you for thinking about supporting our documentation for end users > - but I have a slight problem with just linking to your article.

I understand that, and I support that view, although the document is written for both CentOS and for Fedora, and therefore sort of belongs to both projects. I would prefer to have the document set up in such a way is it is managed on one project's wiki and cross-published, or centrally maintained and published to both, though I realise that's probably technically difficult to achieve (hence my suggestion of simply linking). I wouldn't want one or the other to fall out of date, and wouldn't want to have duplicate effort to keep the information up to date, especially when probably 95% of the content is the same for both CentOS and Fedora. However, it looks like LUKS-based LVM PV encryption may make it into Fedora natively (it's on the roadmap for F9), so the Fedora side of my article will become less relevant anyway. > I can understand if you don't have the time to reformat your article to > our wiki "typesetting", but I'm sure that we can work that out somehow - > for example you put the stuff online, one of us then will go over it and > format it correctly. > > How does that sound to you? Sure, go ahead. I have to admit that reformatting it was one reason for some reluctance on my part. :-) If you give me editing rights of that and relevant pages, I'll even keep them up to date with new patches, improvements, etc. Just as an aside: If the licensing requirements of the CentOS wiki are compatible with the license of my article, you're welcome to copy/paste and rewikify yourself. If not, I'm happy to do it myself and therefore implicitly release it separately in compliance with the CentOS wiki licensing requirements.
