The Linux Kernel documentation
==============================
This is the top level of the kernel's documentation tree. Kernel
documentation, like the kernel itself, is very much a work in progress;
that is especially true as we work to integrate our many scattered
documents into a coherent whole. Please note that improvements to the
documentation are welcome; join the linux-doc list at vger.kernel.org if
you want to help out.
Working with the development community

community and getting your work upstream.

User-oriented documentation
---------------------------
The following manuals are written for *users* of the kernel — those who are
trying to get it to work optimally on a given system and application
developers seeking information on the kernel's user-space APIs.

Other documentation
-------------------

of the documentation body, or may require some adjustments and/or conversion
to ReStructured Text format, or are simply too old.
