24 Something else from this community might catch your attention, |
|
|
|
25 is its orientation toward being administrated by its users themself: |
|
|
|
26 rather than letting the founder handle everything, |
|
|
|
27 the community is oriented toward serious teaching of unix command line and system administration to anyone, |
|
|
|
28 from beginners to advanced users seeking improvement. |

52 The wiki itself features plenty of technical information on system administration as a support for its bootcamps, |
|
|
|
53 which offers a comfortable step-by-step introduction to a complete server administration. |
