New section
Hi
Just a thought if it already hasn't been suggested.
While looking at the forums I thought it might be a good idea under somewhere like 'special forums' add a section called 'projects'. I think this would be good for people to be able to post projects they have created.
For example I am seeking my own project on converting a Linux box to work as a wireless router with a few hundred meter range. When the project was done I would like to post it up saying how I did it what hardware I used and what distro of Linux and how I configured it etc etc. I think this would be great for other people to use as a reference for people looking at doing similar projects, or for whatever projects people have worked on.
So it would kinda be like a bragging section for what people have done but with the information required to help other people do something like it if they needed to.
Just a thought.
Cheers
EDIT: I'm not going to change the original post but would like to clarify what I meant by the word bragging since a reply to one of my post seems it has been taken the wrong way... I meant it as bragging like hey look what I've done
