A little help please!

Thanks Mathew,

So if I were to create that file and add it to a cd or some other
removable media, I should be able to run it from any ubuntu 7.04 box
is that correct?  I'm going to do some more research, thanks for
giving me a starting place.

Here is the reply I received rejecting my application to the doc team.

Hello,

The status of your membership in the team Ubuntu Documentation Project
(ubuntu-doc) was changed by Matthew East (mdke) from Proposed to
Declined.

Comment:
Thanks for applying to join the ubuntu-doc team. The team is for those
who have access to the Ubuntu documentation svn repository, which is
granted to people who have contributed some patches for our
documentation.

We haven't seen any contributions yet from you, so for the moment we're
declining your application. However, please feel free to read
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DocumentationTeam/ and get in touch with us to
contribute. If you do, we'll certainly reconsider your application.

Thanks


Regards,
The Launchpad team
