4 Hi.
5
6 As outlined in the global email about this issue, this email is to start
7 a thread about the QA document. Please reply to this thread if you
8 have any comments about this point.

10
11 3. Add a page to the QA project space (unless they're not interested)
12 about la files and how to deal with them
13
14 I think we can ask Diego to use large parts of his blog posts and charts
15 about .la files[1], [2], [3], [4] as a source for the document. We can
16 also add some basic info from the autobook[5], [6]. The goal would be to
17 have a document similar to our own --as-needed guide [7] and to other
18 distributions[8], [9].
19 Anyone wishes to volunteer for this task?
20 QA would such a document be welcomed in your project space?
