Have you signed up for the Fedora Mentors program yet?
by Patrick W. Barnes
The new Fedora Mentors program (http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mentors)
is looking for more volunteer mentors. If you haven't already, you
should really consider signing up to be a mentor. It's easy, and (at
least for now) the volume is light. While your at it, we are also
trying to put together resources for new contributors to avoid common
questions reaching mentors or the mailing lists. If you know of any
important reading materials for new contributors to your project, we'd
love to hear about it. If you would like to write some introductory
information for new contributors, to help them get started, we'd love to
see it. We could also use some help in preparing resources to help new
mentors get started. As you work to be a mentor, please let us know
what kind of resources you would find helpful. If you have any
questions about the Fedora Mentors program, catch us in #fedora-mentors
on freenode. Our mailing list (fedora-mentors-list(a)redhat.com) isn't
quite ready yet.
>From now on, when you see someone who needs a little guidance to start
contributing, know that the Fedora Mentors program is here to help.
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mentors - We look forward to seeing you there!

Thanks for the suggestion. I think this could work for documentation,
even if it is just a well-crafted cvsignore file.
The people working on the infrastructure are on this list, hopefully
they read your message.

quick update about translation for FC5
by Karsten Wade
Sorry that we went silent on this for a little while.
The translation team, the documentation team, and the infrastructure/CVS
admins are discussing how to best integrate translation with
cvs.fedora.redhat.com.
The goals are:
* Same or similar locking tools, so translators can lock something for
translation
* Usage of CVS without making translators learn a whole new set of tools
* Translation process that is the same translators are used to, using PO
files, etc.
We'll let you know more about how this is shaping up.
thx - Karsten
