External links modified
[edit]Hello fellow Wikipedians,
I have just modified one external link on Linux From Scratch. Please take a moment to review my edit. If you have any questions, or need the bot to ignore the links, or the page altogether, please visit this simple FaQ for additional information. I made the following changes:
- Added archive https://web.archive.org/web/20131203041113/http://www.packtpub.com/article/Linux_From_Scratch to http://www.packtpub.com/article/Linux_From_Scratch

Project History
[edit]I would suggest to have, as the first paragraph, a subsection about history, e. g. when the project was started, what happened during that time.
I suggest to put this close to the top, but not the very top; the very top should be an introduction to the article.
By having a subsection about the project history, people can quickly see which version was released when, and whether the project is active or not. For example the addition of systemd into LFS/BLFS posed a large change - it should be mentioned in which year this has happened as well. Wikipedia should act like a good archive for visitors. 80.110.94.194 (talk) 07:59, 20 August 2019 (UTC)
