My apologies to everyone if this is an inappropriate forum, but it seams to
be the best place to post this idea.
I would like to create the definitive CCIE reference study guide and make it
freely available on the Internet. I seems to me that this forum has some of
the best talent for creating such a reference. I would like to ask anyone
interested in helping to send me an Email. The way I see it I could post
the resulting book on the Internet so that it is freely accessible, and can
be updated regularly as readers find problems or questions. All I need is
some people to help out with submissions. I think it should stick to the
conventional format of one chapter per subject area (i.e. TCP/IP, AppleTalk,
Ethernet, Token Ring, Bridging, DLSW, etc..) I am going to petition a few
authors of some white papers I know of, to see if they will allow me to
include them in the document also.
I can tell you all from experience there is not better way to learn
something that to try to teach it. If you are interested in helping out
send me an Email with what you would be able to contribute. (Your own
original material only, we don't to get into legal trouble.) Again, I'm
sorry if anyone thinks this is not appropriate, but I think the group could
really benefit from such a reference, and it would be made available to
anyone that wants to download and print it. It would have to be copyrighted
so that a publisher could not simply reformat it and sell it for profit. But
it would be treated like shareware, in that anyone could freely distribute
unaltered copies, and contributors would get full credit for the sections
they help author.
