Probably best to ask someone else, but I'm pretty sure you can edit/add what you like to the wiki, and then that content is converted to XML at the end. Regarding the Desktop User Guide, there is a table of what is happening at the bottom of the page: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Docs/Drafts/DesktopUserGuide There is also an Admin Guide, http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Docs/Drafts/AdministrationGuide, which at the moment is missing a few sections. The sections marked "Edit-Ready" need someone other than the original person who wrote it, go over it and make sure it makes sense, spelling, grammar etc. There a guidelines for wiki editing here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/WikiEditing#MarkingTechnicalTerms I'm sure someone else will have better ideas. Thanks, Murray. --------------------------------------------------------------------- pub 1024D/81B3FDEB 2007-09-19 [expires: 2008-09-18] Key fingerprint = 4ED9 9907 5BF0 4132 2B46 20D1 C0C6 362D 81B3 FDEB Murray McAllister (Fedora Docs Project / mdious) <murray.mcallister@xxxxxxxxx> sub 2048g/B04CFA0C 2007-09-19 [expires: 2008-09-18] -- fedora-docs-list mailing list fedora-docs-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-docs-list
