Well I'm not a contributor to the doc project ,but I like to keep informed what is going on here. I am trying to be more involved in promo. Good documentation is a very important aspect when promoting. The best features in the world will not reach a big audience if it's not well documented. If you want more people involved in documentation then you need to have a plan for it. 1. What documentation is needed? man pages, video tutorials, wizards showing the user what happens, wiki like searchable docs??? When someone asks for a job, assign them to an area and tell them that they are needed ther. People feel good about beeing needed. Don't just say, "find something you like". That is the fallback. 2. For KDE4 : focus. It might be necesary to ask for a single language release for 4.0 and add tranlastions in an update release? (By the way I'm Norwegain :-) ) 3. Advertise for people to be involved on selected channels, but don't do it if there is not a system in place that is easy enough for ANY user to use it. 4. Get something to show pretty fast when you have a stucture and plan to follow, it is much easier to discuss from something than from nothing. Regards Birger
