Full Legal Name: Edward A. Gantt [ ...snip... ] Hi Ed! Nice to have you aboard. I know that Karsten is trying to get a Desktop User Guide up to speed and out the door, but I'm not sure whether the current status on that doc allows someone to jump in at this exact moment. Maybe you should look around our sites and see what interests you, and report back here with some ideas you would like to pursue. There's a lot of ground to cover, and the field is sort of wide open, which may be why some people get lost at this point -- so much to do, and where to start? I would recommend that you take a look at the following -- if you're new at this you might as well get used to some fo the best tools o' the trade: http://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-docs-list/2006-August/msg00081.html This was a mostly semi-sane exposition I hosted on how to get started with DocBook XML. Most big Linux doc projects use it, so you might as well learn it. There are other roads you can use, but take it from someone who also learned it here, DocBook is the way to go. http://cvsbook.red-bean.com/cvsbook.html.gz OK, that's a longer and more comprehensive work, but you can skim the first bit of it to learn about CVS if you don't know how that works. If you learn just the basics of those two tools you'll be able to productively write your own content and the rest we can help you with sa you go. Some people just write using the Wiki, but I find it irritating to (a) have to wait for the server to response, and (b) not be able to really work on the stuff easily if I'm not on the 'net. Just my $0.02. Welcome and please ask questions -- we try never to bite here! -- Paul W.
