For the not so hasty we recommend the scenic tour. The scenic tour is a list
of links to pages arranged in an order that will guide you through various
steps and provide you with information such as - where to find things, what
you need, what needs doing, what's being done, what has been done, and how to
do them. Each of these topics is linked to the next in sequential order.

== Special Help Wanted Here ==

We can't all be experts. From time-to-time we need special skills not
current within our skill pool and would be happy to obtain extra help. If there is something listed here and you feel that you can help, we would be happy to hear from you.

'''Help with the QuickGuide'''!

A really easy, fun and useful source of things to do is
the QuickGuide. One can have a look at it [http://people.ubuntu.com/~mako/docteam/quickguide/ online], then pick tasks from [http://people.ubuntu.com/~mako/docteam/status/qg-report.html its status report].

To contribute new content without needing to mess with subversion or
docbook, one can just post them to the ubuntu-doc list, or add/link their new parts
at the end of QuickGuide and annonce them to the ubuntu-doc list,
