For about the last year I have been working on the Fedora Docs team on things like the release notes for Fedora 11, and a revised version of the readme-buring-iso document. I would like to help with Ubuntu documentation as I am using Ubuntu more often and would like to give back some. I am familiar with Docbook and can use bzr (I would not consider myself an expert with it but I can use it). -- Zach Oglesby GPG Key: 1378F79F <a href="http://zachoglesby.com" target="_blank">http://zachoglesby.com</a> -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...

You dont have to be an expert with bzr before you start contributing. right now we are going through the Jaunty docs and making sure any bugs are fixed within the Karmic branch. A good way to start is to find bugs or problems and submit them to launchpad. Also a patch can be submitted there as well if you would like to create the patch. Spend time iwth the mailing list as well and learn the quirks of working with this group of fun people.
