Hi. There's a list of who's currently working on what on the wiki here: http://live.gnome.org/DocumentationProject/Team There's a lot of things to do, so pick whatever you're most interested in :) > I see that the best way is > to contribute patches > (in Docbook for Yelp??), but then while reading the > mailing list I see that > a lot of movement is going on in the wiki instead? > Is this the new preferred > method of contributing? particularly for user guide > type documents? The wiki is useful for several reasons: we can work collaboratively on documents, which can speed up writing, and people who don't know DocBook can work on documents. However, someone still has to turn wiki markup into DocBook. It's also not very convenient for working on a massive document such as the user guide that has to be spanned across many pages (then again, neither is DocBook!) ___________________________________________________________ Yahoo!
