re: introduction
by Adel ESSAFI
Welcome Adel,
Suggest you check out #fedora-docs on the IRC and talk with everyone about
getting started, and were you want to help out. Most of the team leads can
usually be found there.
Hi,
which server do you use in general?

introduction
by Adel ESSAFI
Hi list,
I introduce my self. I am Adel ESSAFI a PHD candidate in computer science
and assistant teacher in ESSTT (high school). I was working with redhat and
fedora since 2000.
I have recently discovered symfony (a framework of PHP) whose developpers
always tell that the success of symfony is FIRST due to the rich
documentation! When I browse the web for some documentation about fedora (or
some software), I feel the lack of documentation of fedora. This may
effectively be a serious handicape for fedora users and especially
beginners.
I want to contribute as most as possible in technical redaction
(quicckstart, help, ....)
I have writen some article (in frech) for linux+ magazine and I try to
publish some post on my blog (below).
I hope that I can help on fedora project
Regards
Adel

Publican Issues
by Eric Christensen
I've been discussing Publican problems since December of 2008. Many
have been discussing it longer. At tonight's (today's) Docs Project
meeting we will discuss Publican and how to go forward. Right now I can
see five options for moving forward:
1. Use Publican for a guide but munge through to an RPM that Fedora will
consume; use jjmcd's script or a new .spec file
2. Fork Publican and remove the variable that puts the version # in the
name
3. Get the Packaging Committee to amend the rules
4. Use Publican for HTML + PDF and fedora-doc-utils for RPM
5. Use f-doc-utils exclusively
Be thinking about this for tonight's meeting.
Thanks,
Eric

Install Guide
by David Nalley
I pushed up the first PDF of what will be the F11 Install Guide in
case you wish to peruse, critique, edit, or contribute.
To give you an idea of our timeline we hope to have a usable (but not
necessarily edited) Install Guide by the beta so that QA can use the
Install Guide in the installation testing.
A number of notable things make this worth checking out.
* The transition to publican has been made
* Significant content has been pulled from the RHEL IG thanks to the
content being licensed under a free license (previously under OPL with
a NC clause, and thus didn't meet Fedora's standard of freedom) and
Rudi doing tons of work.
* The current install guide is 172 pages, that's a significant
addition to previous install guides.

I will try and keep this updated regularly as we inch closer to the
beta, and eventually to release.
