Hi Kent,

I don't consider your post OT at all.  Documentation, especially good
documentation, is nearly always in short supply.  As Tomas suggested,
the Debian Wiki is an excellent choice.  I notice that you also have a
blog, so you could publish your documentation in the form of a blog post
as well.

Whatever approach you choose for publishing your documentation, please
make sure that you contribute something relating to it to the Debian
Project News:

https://wiki.debian.org/ProjectNews/HowToContribute

There are many who subscribe to the periodic Debian Project News and it
would be an excellent way to make more people aware of the documentation
you have written.

Regards,

-Roberto
