Linux Brocure Project 1.0.0 released
[Posted October 7, 2003 by cook]
The Linux Brochure Project (LBP) version 1.0.0 has been released. LBP is a
GPL'd Linux advocacy and publicity project which documents key Linux
information in a standard-size brochure (two sides of a single letter-sized
sheet of paper which is Z-folded into the six mini-pages of the brochure).
Release 1.0.0 is our first stable version of this important Linux publicity
tool for LUGs and other Linux organizations. The software consists of LaTeX
and pdfLaTeX scripts; Sketch input files; and a Makefile to keep the
brochure build organized.
Only open source software (primarily LaTeX and Sketch) is used to build LBP
brochures. LUGs and other Linux organizations can customize the brochure to
fit their requirements within the stringent space limitations. We encourage
contributions of customized versions of the LBP brochure so ultimately there
will be a suite of brochures from around the world at
http://lbproject.sourceforge.net/examples.html for those who want to be
famous. :-) Currently there are two customized brochures available at the
above site -- a "Linus" version featuring famous quotes from Linus and a
VLUG version that has been adopted as the official brochure of the Victoria
Linux Users Group.
