I didn't get around to adding the tester job. But it is very needed. There are two easy ways you can do this: 1) E-mail the author. If I remember correctly, the USB one is Tom's so you can e-mail [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2) Probably the better choice. Add comments in the file. Send e-mail to get signed up for the project. Check out the file. Add comments in remark tags. Start the comment with your openSUSE username so the author knows who it is from. Stick them in the beginning or end of a para so it doesn't cause extra line breaks (although toms might have eliminated this issue). Write whatever you want to say to the author. Check in the changed file with a commit message something like "added remarks from testing". We use the second method (remarks) a lot internally in our review process when developing files and it works really well. We can give each other feedback and note when a certain bit of info is still in a NEEDINFO state when waiting for developer feedback. More details about our remark "codes" are in the style guide. It is possible to build a version of the book with visible remarks. So they can be visible in a review or editing state but not visible for a final product. It is a pretty nifty tool. If you use the <!-- --> style comments, they can't be made visible. We mostly only use those for layout-related changes anymore. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
