The DULG is the successor of the DPLG previously available in different formats and specialized for different boards from the DENX website[2]. The new DULG in contrast is a Wiki collaboration area (TWiki to be precise) allowing direct editing of its contents. If you never heard of "Wikis" before, [3] should be a good starting point for finding out. In addition to the advantages inherent in a Wiki based site, the DULG web is designed to provide board-specific documentation through the ease of a webform for choosing the target board[4]. Right now there are only two boards to choose from, _but_ one is PowerPC based (TQM8xxL), while the other is MIPS based (INCA-IP). The ELDK[5] sections will of course show the correct information for the selected platform... Disclaimer: If things don't work as you expect them to, remember that this baby is _very_ young, but don't hesitate to ask. There's even a place in the Wiki itself for discussing it[6]. Ok, now its official, so all thats left for me to say is: Browse, enjoy and last but not least _improve_ it by contributing! Cheers Detlev PS: Before making major changes, it is a good idea to get familiar with the peculiarities of the DULG web explained in links from the main web[1].
