Self-Introduction
by Minh Nguyen
Hello,
My name is Minh Nguyen and I am interested in joining the Documentation Project.
I am an Oracle and Teradata database developer. I write a lot of SQL, PL/SQL, and Stored Procedures. I also write scripts in Perl and Unix shell. At home, I dabble in all things Linux, PHP, HTML/CSS, etc. I love to tinker, learn new things, and share what I have learned.
I enjoy writing step-by-step tutorials for my personal site. In this manner, I think I can make useful contributions to the Documentation Project. I would also like to help proofread and update documents. I am always fortunate enough to find a kind and knowledgeable soul whenever I need help big or small, and I would like to take the first step in giving back to the community. Please let me know how I can start helping.

Fedora 14 Technical Notes
by John J. McDonough
In last night's meeting it was observed that we might be light on
talking points and release notes, and that we might look at changed
packages that haven't gotten a feature page.
To that end, I have placed an updated version of the Fedora Technical
Notes at
http://fedorapeople.org/groups/docs/technical-notes/en-US
The Fedora Technical Notes lists all changes between Fedora 13 and
Fedora 14 Alpha, with links to the upstream website where available.
Note that only the US English version reflects Fedora 14 Alpha. The
other languages are still Fedora 13.

Getting started
by Chris Ransley
Hi,
I've just joined the documentation team and would like to know where to
start. I would like to help out, primarily, in a proofreader role,
checking for typos and grammar errors.
Thank you,
Chris
