It my experience it's harder (and doesn't pay as well) -:0) Projects are always desperate for better documentation, and we have had some great pieces of ours sent in by people who were reading it, and wanted to improve it as they went along. That's where the Walking Tour of the example application came from. I wrote it to explain the example to myself, and then shared it with the group. Contributing documentation to a project is no different than contributing code. http://jakarta.apache.org/site/getinvolved.html The only caveat is that it *is* no different than contributing code, and so it should be in the same format as the rest of the documentation, ready to paste or otherwise patch. -Ted.
