Welcome to the team! Proofreading is certainly a great way to help out
at this stage in the release cycle; we need to check absolutely
everything for correctness, so the more eyes the better.

There are a couple of people working on proofreading a few sections
already (mostly Internet and Music, Videos and Photos), so you can help
out with those sections if you like.

Alternatively, I don't think anyone has had a look at the following yet:

      * Keeping Your Computer Safe
      * New to Ubuntu?
      * Office
      * Printing, Faxing and Scanning

Please let us know if you'd like any help getting started, or have questions on anything at all.

Thanks,

Phil
