Adam, it is not a good idea to just start editing documents without checking with the owner first. This is especially true since you are just starting with the project and we haven't seen any of your existing documentation work. I am sure you will do a good job, though. What you might want to do is start by looking at the drafts available in the wiki at http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Docs/Drafts and seeing what you can help with there. We need help with the Getting Started Guide, the Desktop Users Guide, and so forth. Feel free to pitch in since you get much more immediate results there! > And again thank you for help.

We have a number of people in the Docs Project who are experienced Linux people and will be happy to lend their expertise. You may want to make a habit of checking in and hanging out on IRC at #fedora-docs and meeting some of our wonderful contributors. Hope to see you there! -- Paul W.
