Goals in Fedora Project: To learn more about the OS itself by learning skills through the docs project and then relaying the knowledge learnt to the general public.
Historical Qualifications: I have not worked on projects so far, due to the fact that I have just finished school. I have ~mid-range computer skills (currently studying a bachelor of IT w/previous experience). I am able to program (intermediately) in Perl and PHP and (basicly) in Java. I am currently working on learning JSP. I feel that I am excellent for this project as I have not been exposed to the wider documentation community as of yet and therefore I will be able to write documentation with a clear perspective of the project.
Welcome Adam.
Have you found all you need here?

Under the section, "How You Can Help", what strikes our fancy?
If you are looking for suggestions ...
Are you interested in working on Fedora-specific developer content? There is a new Develoment SIG starting up that is focusing on making Fedora a premier development environment.

Having a writer or two focused on that is a good idea. You could help cover the beat for the release notes for Fedora 8:

Just as an opening ideas. :)
