One thing I noticed is that the "Join" page on the wiki is a much better landing place than the "HelpWanted" page, which is musty and not very inviting to someone who might receive a letter like this. Is the "Join" content ready to move over to that target? Anyway, how about this: = = = = = = >8 <NAME_OF_INVITER> <email@xxxxxxxxxxx> has invited you to join the Fedora Project! We are a community of users and developers who produce a complete operating system from entirely free and open source software (FOSS). <NAME_OF_INVITER> thinks that you have knowledge and skills that make you a great fit for the Fedora community, and that you might be interested in contributing. How could you team up with the Fedora community to use and develop your skills? Check out http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Join for some ideas. Our community is more than just software developers -- we also have a place for you whether you're an artist, a web site builder, a writer, or a people person. You'll grow and learn as you work on a team with other very smart and talented people. Fedora and FOSS are changing the world -- come be a part of it! = = = = = = >8 -- Paul W.
