Greetings to you all.

I just wanted to show and and declare myself interested in working on documentation for Base, which I started using last week. My appearance here has been urged upon me by Tom Davies, and I'll have to trust his wisdom on this, as I'm no expert. I do, however, keep copious notes on most things I learn about new software, and have years of work with MS Access, developing databases for my own use.

Right now, as I get the time, I'm accumulating everything I can find that looks like documentation for Base, while also rushing to get several databases up and running. I find Base is pleasantly stable, full of features, and not exactly well documentated. It's also slower than I expected, even with indexes in place (but maybe I'm messing something up, being new to this software). But it's a great piece of work, and I expect to be working with it for many years ahead.

I write a lot, and I'm very willing to contribute documentation, or at least drafts for others to tune up as needed. I know I have much to learn, but I'm on track with learning it, so...

I'm open to any suggestions as to where I need to go to learn how to be a better documentation contributor.

Thanks for your patience while I learn the ropes.
