Welcome!
With the Fedora 11 Beta scheduled for release "soon" (there is a
schedule here somewhere.....)
The Installation Guide and the User's Guide will need to be verified.
From your introduction, that sounds like something that might interest
you. I am sure those team leaders will have more information.
Meanwhile check out:
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Docs_Project_content_tasks_for_new_contrib...
Internally, the Docs Project is still in need of much cleanup for our
own process pages and documentation but you can now find most of them
in the Docs Project Category on the wiki:
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Category:Docs_Project
We know that they have some inconsistancies so please so not be shy
about asking questions.
Again, welcome.

Background
Comfortable with Windows desktop and server products - certified systems
engineer
Have several years experience developing and presenting learning materials
to university students and workers within technical areas of various
companies.
Have tested fan created missions for games such as Thief and even delved in
creating some of the readables.
Great believer in KIS (keep it simple) and have found that screen shots,
etc. are excellent learning tools for those of us who are not computer
naturals
Knowledge of Linux / Fedora
Absolute Newbie ... less than a week old. I'm somewhat intimidated by the
new concepts and perceptions encompassing Fedora but I'm excited to be able
to dig into a few area of expertise.
I've jumped in with a dual-boot install. I thought that all I had to do was
to install Fedora on freed-up space on a single hard drive already occupied
by Microsoft Vista. However, I soon discovered that the two systems
handle "primary" drives somewhat differently and that the only way I could
get a viable working copy of Fedora on my computer was to install it on what
Vista designated as part of the "extended" drive (this variant doesn't
appear to be addressed in the installation guide).
Goals - Where I could help
Since I'm so new to Linux and Fedora I am less likely to miss or overlook
steps that a Fedora expert takes for granted. I'm also more likely to
query what appears to be outdated documentation (e.g. the software's
recommendation to follow what is actually a mandatory procedure to create a
user name and password during installation). At the same time, I recognize
I have somewhat of a learning curve to overcome so probably the best place
to use me is in testing and editing of current material.
Availability
I'm between semesters and have plenty of free time between now and May 9 to
devote myself to this project (at least 40 hrs a week). When I return to
school my time will be limited to only a few hours a week.
