Hello, I have set up a login and read the contributions page and I am currently working my way into the user guide. Please let me know where to begin or how I can be of assistance. As I do not know the project yet I am most interested in anything that can gain me practical experience in technical writing, be it manuals, software application instructions, user guides, or even basic documentation: I am at your disposal.
