Thank you, John, for your reply and your encouragement. Yea...sometimes, for me, setting "short-term goals" help me to achieve ...well...just GOALS.
For the last two releases, I've been the adjunct author for the Desktop chapter. If any "reauthoring" needs done for 12.10, I may not have time to do so. So I guess I'm simply sounding a warning bell in that I'll probably need help if sections of the Desktop chapter need reauthoring. I should know by the end of this weekend where I'm at. I'll do my best this iteration. Going forward, I think it would be good to seek out a dedicated author for this section so that the author-editor responsibilities are properly divided. --Jim On Wed, Sep 19, 2012 at 3:37 PM, c7p <[email protected]> wrote: > Hey Jim, > > i'm glad that you set short-term goals :).
