Introduction

[Chris Perry]

Hi Ryan

Thanks for introducing yourself and offering help.

I've recently been doing some work on the desktop help, also known as
the official documentation, (a version of which is always included
with Ubuntu).

https://help.ubuntu.com/

Would you be interested in doing some work on that? I know the basics,
so I can help you get started if you like.

Regards,

Chris.
