Well, Tom Davies is signed up there, and I'm also signed up to the Ubuntu docs list, although I don't read it much right now (too much else pouring into my mailbox). I'm an Ubuntu user myself, with 11.04 running "classic" Gnome rather than Unity. On the English docs team wiki index page, it recommends people to post to the mailing list to make contact with the team. I, or one of the other Alfresco admins, then expeditiously create an Alfresco account for the new contributor and support them in getting down to work. The Alfresco platform is currently requiring some configuration work to really get the best out of it, although it's a fully-operational and usable facility just as it stands at this time. We have a conversation on-going with the Alfresco project about this. In any case, work will be started within the coming 2 weeks. Then a guide will be updated to provide better information. Until that time, I try to be as responsive as possible as regards people's questions here on the list, whether about Alfresco or whatever other docs related subject, as do some other regular docs contributors, so please feel free to ask whatever you'd like to know. -- David Nelson -- Unsubscribe instructions: E-mail to [email protected] Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/documentation/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted
