Re: broken link how to contribute
How to contribute to the manual is different than how to contribute to the project. Both should be made evident. Best Regards.

Well, that link *is* in a sentence saying how to contribute to the manual. Where's the confusion? As for contributing to the project, that's a broader, less easy to define question ... What are your areas of interest? Or are you talking about ways other than code? Ben -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-live-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble?
