I try to keep track on Linux at nic.funet.fi, but help
	is welcome ...

	After some thinking, I changed Linux FTP directory
	structure to be more understandable (just check nic's
	Minix directory /pub/minix !-)

	nic.funet.fi:/pub/OS/Linux

		kernel		has kernel kits and device driver
				add-ons.
		images		for all image files.
		bin		binaries to /bin and /usr/bin
		tools		binaries not usable for 'common' user.
		doc		documents and man-pages.
		lib		/lib and /usr/lib libraries.
		xtra		stuff not in previous categories.

	Comments are still welcome!

	I try to keep "ls -laR" listing in file 'ls-laR'. Informative
	README file is at main level. Fixes/suggestions to that are welcome.

	It is possible to "put" with FTP your fixes and add-ons to the main
	Linux directory - they will not be available/readable after
	putting ... not until I enable them (I try to find right
	place for them - still mostly to 'xtra' directory).

	arl
