Very cool, and welcome.
We could really use some help in documenting systemd. That is one of
the larger recent innovations, and we have precious little written about
it.
I think you will find Docbook/Publican really isn't much of a barrier,
and if you capture the plain text in emacs you are well on the way. An
alternative would be to capture your text on the wiki. That way it
would be easy to share and have others review. We have wiki to DocBook
conversion tools, but frankly, conversion from plain text is probably
easier, but it is a little harder to share.
Over at kde-docs-english we have our own little slice of SVN for
colloborative editing. I find that to be a lot easier to work with than
wikis. Perhaps we could set up a fedorahosted/fedorapeople git repo for
this (or colloborative editing in general)?
Stop by the IRC channel if you get a chance and say hi. I would say
come to our weekly IRC meetings, but we are changing the time and I'm
not sure exactly where we are in that process. We have been meeting
Wednesday at 2300Z, but we are moving that to a time a little more
appealing to Europeans; I'm just not sure when we are making the move.
Again, welcome.
