This can be quite daunting for beginners who are just starting their journey.* *I would like to build on a suggestion I received from Richard Lewis:* "It would be a good idea to consolidate the key information into a single page." *My specific proposal is to go a step further: I suggest we merge the technical specifications with a 'getting started' guide. The goal is to create a unified resource that serves both the average user looking for practical steps and the technical user who needs deeper details. By doing this, we can bridge the gap and make the information more accessible to everyone in the Debian and GNU/Linux community.* *I=E2=80=99d love to hear your thoughts on this approach.* *Best regards,* *Carlos* El s=C3=A1b, 9 may 2026 a la(s) 6:41=E2=80=AFa.m., Richard Lewis ( [email protected]) escribi=C3=B3: > Joost van Baal-Ili=C4=87 <[email protected]> writes: > > > Ola Carlos, > > > > Since https://wiki.debian.org/es/CommandLineInterface is maintained > using > > the wiki system, you're very much invited to add content you yourself > feel > > is useful.
