Sorry about the lateness of this reply, I had a very full week and
weekend. But I took a few moments to look at the site and saw a number
of topics that could be integrated in our User Guide and Administration
Guide. Marc, are you interested in contributing there? John Babich
does the DUG, and Bart Couvreur the AG. You could communicate with them
here (I'd recommend that over private email so that people will see
activity and be moved to help out too), to figure out what to add and in
what context.
There are some topics in your site that are in legally gray areas for
Fedora, so those might be best left as is, or contributed to one of the
other unofficial sites as desired. John and other FDP members should be
able to help you get started integrating the rest. Thanks for stepping
up to help out!

Well the simply black and white approved stuff can be moved. I'll try
and get in contact with John and Bart in what areas. I'm fairly sure
they will face lots of hair pulling for the first one to two goes of
this.

Marc
