Hi |

Good to see people wishing to spend their time on docs :-), no really! |
4 |
Originally I was thinking in terms of individual submissions to bugzilla |
5 |
listing that or other question which should be included in FAQ. |
6 |
However since there seems to be quite a few people interested in getting |
7 |
this done I suppose some coordination can help. |
8 |
|
9 |
Hereby I announce a call for FAQ submissions. |
10 |
Shortly I will submit a bug to bugs.gentoo.org and announce its number |
11 |
here. Bugzilla is a nice place to collect independent submissions IMHO, as |
12 |
it provides a minimalistic forum-like functionality. Please submit your |
13 |
Qs&As there. Somebogy, who will volonteer will combine the |
14 |
question into single <xml> file and will [try to] keep it up to date with |
15 |
new submissions (quite likely that would be me, |
16 |
unless somebody has an itch for editorial work :-). I willl wait few days and |
17 |
then assume this role if there are no volonteers). Regular builds of this |
18 |
file (2-3 day period in the beginning makes sense) will get attached to the |
19 |
same bug for an easy incorporation into existing documents. |
