InstallSlash.org Launched

Installation of slashcode, the content management software that runs the
popular net site Slashdot (http://www.slashdot.org), has always been a
difficult and arduous task for even the hardened administrator. 

In response to this, in June of 2002 I created the "Install Slash For
Dummies" document
(http://www.misterorange.com/docs/INSTALL-Slash-For-Dummies.html). 

However, the document did not provide a comment system nor did it
provide a community based format, such as a forum, that would benefit
those who encountered problems when installing slash.

In response to this, I have created http://www.installslash.org. This is
a new community site whose goal is make it as easy as possible to
install slash, while at the same time provide support and valuable
information on modifying slash to your liking, no matter what skill
level you may reside.

Your assistance in spreading the word on this site would be most
appreciated.

Thanks for your time.
