Introduction

The Documentation Team is a group of community volunteers responsible for writing, editing, and updating the system documentation that ships with the Ubuntu, Kubuntu, Xubuntu, and Edubuntu desktop operating systems. New versions of these guides are available with each new release of Ubuntu. These are translated with the Rosetta translation tool in the same manner as all of the other applications in Ubuntu.

Projects

The two types of documentation that the team is responsible for are:

  • System Documentation --- the documentation that comes with every Ubuntu, Kubuntu, Xubuntu, and Edubuntu system. It includes the Ubuntu Server Guide.

  • Wiki Documentation --- the help wiki is a community edited resource that anyone can edit.

For information on how to contribute, visit either of the two pages linked above. If you need help understanding the team's processes, you might want to contact the team or even join the mentoring scheme!
