<title>alfs-discuss</title>
<para>The alfs-discuss list discusses the development of ALFS, which is short
for Automated Linux From Scratch. The goal of this project is to develop an
installation tool that installs an LFS system automatically, thus speeding
up compilation by taking away the need to manually enter the commands.</para>

<title>blfs-support</title>
<para>The blfs-support list handles support requests for any software
that is not built or installed in the LFS book. Any software beyond what is
installed as part of the base LFS system can be discussed here.</para>
<para>The blfs-support list is for the BLFS Book and beyond.
It includes requests for help following the BLFS Book,
requests for help with packages not (yet) in
either the LFS Book or the BLFS Book,
and other requests and discussion concerning software
that might be installed on an LFS system.
It does not include topics such as
the price of beer, what hardware to buy,
or GNU versus BSD or Microsoft versus Linux flamewars.
These belong on lfs-chat,
and since blfs-support is high traffic,
please follow this rule strictly.

<title>lfs-announce</title>
<para>The lfs-announce list is a moderated list. It can be subscribed to, but
you can't post any messages to this list. This list is used to announce
new stable releases. The lfs-dev list will carry information about
development releases as well. If a user is already on the lfs-dev
list, there's little use subscribing to
this list as well because everything that is posted to the lfs-announce
list will be posted to the lfs-dev list as well.</para>
