When we talk about QA documentation we're mostly talking about documenting the things we do here in QA - writing them down so other groups within and outside Fedora can see and understand our processes. We are not 'in charge' of writing documentation for Fedora itself, or the software that makes up Fedora. If you'd like to get involved with that kind of thing, I can suggest the docs project: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/DocsProject Their 'how to join in' page is here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/DocsProject/Join However, we're always grateful for new people in the QA project too, and it'd be great to have more help with organizing and improving the QA wiki space, a project some of us have been working on for a few weeks now. Keep an eye on the list for posts relating to that :).
