==== Example Resource Kits ====
 
* http://docs.msdnaa.net/ark_new3.0/cd3/npage.htm
* http://www.linuxfirmwarekit.org/
* http://developer.apple.com/samplecode/AppleApplications/index.html (example of how Apple works with categories vs. trees).
 
==== TODO ====
 
* Create Linux build/dev environment, perhaps as a [http://zenit.senecac.on.ca/wiki/index.php/Potential_Projects#Create_a_MDRK_Spin project in the fall].
* Finalize agreement with Microsoft to redistribute VS.NET Express
* Collect all software and other binary materials to go on the discs
* Write "one pagers" on all the tools included with the kit
* Build tree hierarchy for MDC content using a file-system dir structure (likely more than one root, e.g., Reference, Books, Tutorials, etc.)
* Write tool to parse a "transformation" script, which would take page titles and copy them to category dirs, delete them, etc. The basic idea is to avoid touching the files from MDC manually.
* Do a wget of the MDC mirror on liberia, which does *not* pull in any outside materials.
* Create a "transformation" script to automate the process of classifying and cleaning the MDC content generated by the wget, such that it is never done manually:
** Find and kill all red links in the MDC content (i.e., transform them into plain text).
** Find and kill all place-holder docs which have little or no valuable content.
** Delete any docs that are not in scope for the kit (e.g., docs that refer to things not specifically about Mozilla development)
