Wondering who is working on this. Seems out of date since the last
version I can access is the draft for Fedora 9.
The best place to find it right now is on the tasks page [1]. I know
it seems like User_Guide makes more sense, but since we only use the
wiki for editing and collaboration and not for publishing, appearance
doesn't matter too much, and User_Guide_tasks already had a task table
set up when I took over the lead for the guide.

We're finishing up the F10 User Guide and will be starting on F11
soon.
Reiterating what Kirk said, the F10 guide is basically done, content
wise. I'm going to grab the MediaWiki formatting off the wiki so that
I can convert it to DocBook XML when I get the chance (our MediaWiki -
> DocBook conversion tool is in the process of being fixed right
now), and as soon as I do that we can start working on the F11 guide
right in the wiki. The F11 final release is scheduled for May 26 with
the release candidate about a month before, so we may be able to push
an F11 guide out the window by the time the final release is out.

Since I'm new to Linux/Fedora it would also give me a chance to play

beta which is supposed to be available tomorrow.
I would suggest you go ahead and download/install the beta since
that's our upcoming task. In the meantime, you may want to read
through the current F10 draft to get a feel for the writing style and
conventions we try to use. It's definitely not perfect though, so if
you want to find the final word on writing conventions, look around
the style guide on the Docs Team page [1] or ask someone knowledgeable
in IRC.

Suggest you get on the IRC server freeNode, #fedora-docs, and meet
everyone. The lead for the User Guide is danielsm1 on IRC.
I usually have IRC clients open on different shells, so sometimes my
nick is danielsm1. If you can't find that, I'm probably danielsmw,
which is what I try to use primarily.
Cheers,
Matthew Daniels
