If you've made new screenshots, then send a tgz with the docbook and the images. If it's quite large, then upload it somewhere to save people having to download the whole thing. If there are no new screenshots, just attach the docbook file. > Third of all, how would I go about committing my work directly to CVS? That > part is more for a bit later on, when I'm more familiar with the process. Once you're familiar with writing, you can apply for a cvs account (from Stephan Kulow coolo at kde.org , I think). Once you've done that, set CVSROOT to :pserver:yourusername at cvs.kde.org:/home/kde and 'cvs login'. To add your changes to CVS, use 'cvs commit file1 file2 ...' to add the changes you made in file1, file2 and so on. You'll be asked for a log file. Just describe the changes briefly, and exit, saving the file, and everything will be committed. Make sure to set EDITOR to your favourite editor, or you'll end up having to use vi (yuk! ;-). If you have created any new files, use 'cvs add file1...' for the new files, then 'cvs commit'. If you modify several files at a time, commit them all with one command, and only one log file will be generated, which is more convenient for people receiving the kde-cvs mailing list.
