Chris:
Welcome. Feel free to look around
(
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Docs/Drafts/ and /cvs/docs) to see what
exists and what is being worked on. You might consider diving in to
work on expanding/updating storage for the Administration Guide
(
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Docs/Drafts/AdministrationGuide at the
moment, but we are doing an XML conversion as a beta/interim release.)
Another place always need writers throughout the release cycle is for
the release notes, which are doing in the wiki at
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Docs/Beats/. You can focus on just areas
that interest you, signing up at
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/DocsProject/ReleaseNotes/Beats. If you
don't see a category for what you want to write about, you can suggest
adding it.
cheers - Karsten
* Historical qualifications
o I've written some of the pages on Gentoo's wiki. Short
stories, poetry and presently almost finished a novel.
Answering forum questions.
o Computer skills: Intermediate in most areas, very strong in
some.
o I'm not a bad code monkey.
o I've managed a software development project.
o Some electrical and hard hack skills, using Linux (or no
OS) of course :P.
o What makes you an excellent match for the project? In a
short amount of time I can product awesome work. Improving
Fedora and the Linux experience is a very good thing.
