Thank you for joining us. Fedora is very interested in being both upstream and downstream providers of content. In the downstream case, we want to contribute in meaningful ways back up to common documentation bases. Right now we can do that by e.g. editing documentation from upstream. We are not actively doing this as a group, but could be. Tools would help here. As upstream providers, we want to provide a common Fedora documentation base that can be reused for Fedora derivatives. Additionally, we are providing a Fedora-based toolchain that is a full documentation editing system (SCM + Wiki + XML + CMS) ... doing that one piece at a time. This sounds compatible with your ideas and activities, perhaps?
