Goals:
I have done much writing and editing and have had over 50 articles published
in mostly hard copy magazines. I am highly interested in writing about
Fedora and also programming, and games, and Wireless Internet. I have
specific knowledge on the installs on stand alone machines. I am willing to
write whatever is needed to help out.
Id like to see more documentation on installs, setting up wireless, and
other subjects, and id also like to see the accuracy of these documents
remain very, very high, both in spelling and in grammar.
I have an ambition to help out as much as i can. I love Linux and want to
spread the word about how great Linux is, at the same time as making it more
accessible to the general public. Part of the problems lie in the complex
nature of Linux and the huge number of separate resources needed to solve
problems. Id like to see these issues resolved and brought closer together
so that the resources can be found in one specific location, the Linux
Documentation Project. I want to see as many come over from Microsoft as is
possible to increase the numbers of users on Linux accessing great open
source applications.
