Publican, which is the software that generates Fedora Documentation, now supports OPDS, the Open Publication Distribution System. OPDS is a syndication format for electronic publications. Thus, Electronic Reader programs or devices can be given a URL for the Fedora Docs catalog, and can browse through it, and download publications for reading.

If you have a program that supports OPDS, add in the URL http://docs.fedoraproject.org/opds.xml, or if you want our preference…US-English, try http://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/opds.xml.

We use Aldiko,  an ebook book reader for the Android mobile OS. But there are several more. For a list of some complaint readers, click here.
