General Documentation aimed at users / system administrators

Distribution-Specific User Documentation

FreeBSD

Gentoo

Other

  • Links to user documentation (distribution)

Do we want this here or should this just be part of the links to other distributions?

Implementation Documentation aimed at developers

Links to documentation on other websites:

Repo-Specific Developer Documentation

  • Information about how to develop ZFS for the different distributions/pointers to them (e.g., how to build illumos)
    • In particular, documentation about how to test and possibly scripts for building
    • Needs to be written/links provided by reps from those communities
