Right from the time I started contributing to the gNewSense project, I have been writing/improving web-site documentation. Now, I have realized that I got to improve on the way I write "technical documentation". So, today I started reading the GNOME documentation style guide[1] to look for ways to improve my style of writing (hopefully). I am not sure how long it'll take to complete the guide with the constraint of time & I don't want to fiddle with gNewSense web-site documentation until I finish this guide[1]. To reflect this I have removed my name from the Documentation Team in the WhoHacksWhat[2] wiki page.
You could practise on the gNewSense wiki while you're going through that guide, and append our own guidelines [1] with what you experience to be best practices. If you rather just read it first, that's fine too, of course. Thanks for the update.
In the mean time, while I learn about "how to write documentation effectively", I do wish to contribute to the gNewSense project in other ways -- are there any other avenues where I can be of help ?
You could join in on the alpha testing (see my earlier mail on this list). I haven't had much feedback yet, so either it works amazingly well, or nobody's interested. :)
I first mailed this to address@hidden, but my mail delivery system reported error in sending the mail to this address -- "Relay access denied".
Reported as a bug [2]. I'll get on it. [1] http://gnewsense.org/DocumentationTeam/Guidelines [2] https://savannah.nongnu.org/bugs/index.php?36815
