We're starting this 20th issue with a new document:

• Review this Scripting Graphical Commands with Tcl/Tk Mini-HOWTO if you want to get started with the Tcl/Tk graphical toolkit. Salvador J. Peralta is waiting for your comments!

1.2. Proposed new documents

• On the same lines as the Disk Encryption HOWTO proposed by David Braun last week, Christophe Devine suggest an Encrypted file system HOWTO. Join us on the LDP discussion mailing-list for comments on these proposals.

2.1. HOWTOs

We're getting in full speed again, be prepared!

• Saqib Ali provided us with v4.1.0 of his Apache based WebDAV Server with LDAP and SSL HOWTO. If you were wondering: WebDAV stands for Web enabled Distributed Authoring and Versioning. Saqib's objective is to set up an Apache + MySQL + PHP + WebDAV based application server, using LDAP for authentication.
• If you feel like playing a bit with your kernel, here's v1.04 of Bryan Henderson's Linux Loadable Kernel Module HOWTO.
• We've got a lot of updates from the VideoLAN project. VideoLAN is a complete software solution for streaming MPEG video on high-bandwidth networks. The project consists of VLS, the VideoLAN server and VLC, the client, which can accidentally also serve videos.
  

  The documentation consists of the following:

  • The VideoLAN HOWTO
  • The VideoLAN Quick-start
  • The VLC User Guide
  • The VLS User guide

  Many thanks to Alexis de Lattre, Marc Ariberti, Anil Daoud, Clement Stenac, Henri Fallon, Johan Bilien, Mathieu Gautier and all the others volunteering for this project!
