Hi, I'm fairly new to the #docs mailing list. I'm currently working on some documentation for the Foresight Linux distribution to be integrated with GNOME and Yelp, and once I have a handle on Docbook with GNOME, I hope to contribute to documentation for GNOME as well.
What resources or tips would you give someone new who's just getting started? I have no programming experience, and limited technical writing experience. Writing documentation and howto's on a wiki or on the web is very different than writing in Docbook. I've used subversion to check out the documentation of a number of GNOME projects, and have been comparing the XML files to what I see in Yelp to gain an understanding, but I still have a number of questions around the tags I see in the XML files, such as guilabel as an example. I also am not sure on how to integrate images and screenshots. I've browsed LGO quite a bit, as well as the GNOME Handbook, but all the links to the styleguide appear broken. Where else would you send someone looking for more information? Thanks!
