-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi Troy, Lauri Watts, our co-ordinator, is away, so I'll make an attempt to reply (CC'ing the list, so that someone can correct me if I'm wrong...)
> I am interested in contributing to the KDE Documentation Team. I use > Linux/ UNIX and KDE professionally and personally on a daily basis and have > experience in technical writing. I have no experience with DocBook; so I > would need to come up to speed in that regard. Great, welcome aboard! We can always use more contributors. I guess your first port of call should be the docs status page at: http://people.fruitsalad.org/people/lauri/docs/ , and see if there's anything that's not marked as up to date that takes your fancy. If so, email the list to check that no-one's already working on it, to save duplicating effort. You'll also need to be running a recent development version of KDE - either a recent snapshot, CVS HEAD, or (I think) the latest beta. Details on getting one of those should be on www.kde.org . As to learning DocBook, it's fairly straightforward to pick up, especially if you've done something similar before. The KDE DocBook guide is at http://i18n.kde.org/doc/markup/index.html , which explains the use in KDE of all the DocBook tags we use. The official guide to DocBook ('The Duck Book') is at: http://www.docbook.org/tdg/en/html/docbook.html and there's lots more information at http://i18n.kde.org/doc If you would prefer to get writing rather than learning DocBook, then you can write documentation in plain text, and someone can add the markup for you.
