I live in Jodhpur, Rajasthan, India ( GMT+5:30). My FAS account username is "navneetsingh0693" and my IRC nickname is "ns0693". I learned about Fedora Documentation Team from Fedora Wiki only, and i am interested in writing some help documentation for fedora as it will easier to start my contribution in Fedora and gain more experience. I have also applied for Fedora Ambassadors. I picked up documentation because it helps other new users and students easier to grab use of Linux and related stuffs and spread knowledge about it. I have not contributed in my writings to any such project Fedora but i have written many articles in schools and have a habit of writing about everything i see new. I am having good amount of Computer Skills including MS Office and Libre Office as Software Packages, C/C++ as Languages, Linux/Windows as Platforms. I am a very enthusiastic person interested much in contributing in FOSS projects and chose Fedora as i love it.

Thanks, Navneet Singh - -------- - -------- Hello, Navneet, and welcome! If you haven't found it yet, you can get started here: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Docs_Project?rd=DocsProject . As you read through the wiki, you'll find that we have three major ventures: The guides at https://docs.fedoraproject.org are the primary work. https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Docs_Project_guides_table has a list of the guides, and to get started there I suggest you work on an existing bug - http://tinyurl.com/lbrq84 - or submit a patch in a new bug report. Some of the source URLs are were incorrect last I checked the trac pages, but you can find everything at http://git.fedorahosted.org/cgit/ . Our second major work is the Release Notes. We break the changes in each release into categories called 'beats,' as described at http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Category:Documentation_beats . You can mark yourself down for a beat and research the important changes in that area, or you can simply track changes that affect you and mark down what know. Every little bit helps here, so feel free to take on as much or as little as you can handle. We also handle wiki gardening and maintenance. This has been left by the wayside lately, and could really use some attention. Adding an include for a 'this document is obsolete' banner would go a long way. Keep in mind that these are just suggestions. There are surely ways to participate that I didn't list. The best advice I've seen was to be bold, and commit often :-) - -- - -- Pete Travis - Fedora Docs Project Leader - 'randomuser' on freenode - immanetize@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx - -- - -- Pete Travis - Fedora Docs Project Leader - 'randomuser' on freenode - immanetize@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.19 (GNU/Linux) iQEcBAEBAgAGBQJRK4JXAAoJEL1wZM0+jj2ZTEEH/2qp8+CF5uQXne2YnwsEQoUB ukHfH3bpFFXC2a0nGmeFU02CDR4aLX6/wANK0p6ZWJzt5wlUFv4WtGQOTU4YVj1E UdeApCWwezLtHRqirgaw/MT9mXdqFC7H9FulIqxH+UnHSZZAIHNm9gPOkNgfHKT6 5Wq9v+sTAtd9JYKR78G9l5uW/h7b1+2+EbTrRlW5LCqTGjO1GVrlFuVzLCiSiG91 P1Zaz4d8wmCvoqN24onkEybqonfcQNP50dk+TXUysbBMnuf+WMwbxB0Aj4615vV9 gZ3pG+J803QPXqb4fXziJWLqEnQftg4pwncAm3woy422z1RAFnHScJN74Z0Qhlg= =qCED -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- docs mailing list docs@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/docs
