Sean,
Thanks for your kind words, and we welcome your offer of help.
When you find dcoumentation errors or "opportunities for improvement",
it would be most helpful if you would file bugs in Jira:
http://www.openlaszlo.org/jira/secure/Dashboard.jspa
Significant errors and enhancement requests, such as, for example,
"example 'this dot that' in chapter 'this' does not compile", or "it
would be good to have a chapter on using color in OpenLaszlo
applications" merrit individual bug reports; you can group typos and
small errors together in omnibus bugs, for example "collected typos and
bad links, chapters 20 -- 30 of developer guide".
Longer term, I would love to have some help documenting the
documentation tools themselves, so that they can be:
-- used by members of the community to generate their own openlaszlo
style docs
-- extended and enhanced by the community
And of course, you can help by simply writing documentation and fixing
doc bugs. I'm working against a backlog of 171 JIRA tasks right now!
If you would like to contribute to the project (aside from filing
bugs), please complete the contributor process that is explained on the
openlaszlo.org site.
Kind Regards,
John Sundman

Hi,
I am just getting started.
First stop in learning LZX has been the most excellent collection of
documentation. Well done. Most excellent stuff!!!
While reading I have noticed the docs are developed in Docbook XML.
Since this
is an area I know well, I thought I may start by lending a hand in
this area.
For starters, while I am reading and learning, I can supply patches
containing
fixes to typos, grammar and punctuation problems. As I know more,
perhaps I
can help with some embellishment or development of docs for new
features or
functions.
I've been poking about svn and have not had much luck in locating the
xml src.
If somebody could direct me to the documentation sources it would be a
good
start.
Thanks,
