We have a lack of content that is for developers -- everything from how to use the platform to why Fedora is a good platform for developers. Would that be an area interesting to you? Typically there are more writers with sysadmin-oriented experience; thus I've been looking for developer-oriented writers to work with the Development SIG. If you like this idea, you'll want to contact/join the SIG, get involved in their meetings and such, and talk with them about what content they would like to see developed: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/SIGs/Development There is a *very old* Fedora Developer Guide. We could look into updating that: http://docs.fedoraproject.org/developers-guide/ That guide is more about how to get involved/contribute as a developer. It could certainly be updated from information scattered currently across the wiki. In addition, specific how-to content could be developed. All this can be done in XML in CVS, but you might have more luck with finding other collaborators for the initial drafts if you do the work on the wiki: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Docs/Drafts If you are not interested in this idea :), you might find another draft in that location you do want to work on. Regardless, please bring your ideas and questions to this list so you can find other collaborators. Cheers - Karsten -- Karsten Wade, Developer Community Mgr.
