Lubuntu Wiki & Docs Team - Contributors needed

Sun May 3 17:38:38 UTC 2015

Hi Florian,

Very glad to see someone else interested in helping this team. I have, of
course, accepted your request to join the team. One can always help,
regardless of your free time. And you don't need to be a Lubuntu user to
help. Eventually it would be great if you could mount a VM to install
Lubuntu and search for specific bits, if ever needed.

You can fine the milestones on the blueprints section of our launchpad team
page <https://blueprints.launchpad.net/~lubuntu-wiki-docs>. I admit I don't
have it always updated because since I am working alone I don't need it,
but as soon as I have more people involved, I will make extra efforts to
have those updated. By the way, those are currently updated.
If you wish to collaborate to the manual, then go to the manual project
page, which you can find on the team's launchpad profile.

You should try to get on IRC more often then. We (the teams) usually
discuss a lot of important stuff there. Besides, it's live chat, so if you
ever encounter yourself with any question, you can quickly ask. If not me,
someone else will help.

Thank you for replying to my email. Hope to see you soon :)
