DocumentationTeam

The documentation team is the engine of the Ubuntu Documentation Project (UDP), an Open Source volunteer project that aims to develop and maintain literary content surrounding the Ubuntu distribution and community.

Authored works are released using a dual license strategy. This means there are many ways to contribute to the project - documenting, editing, proof reading, technical checks and reporting or fixing typos, grammar or spelling errors. Even suggestions or ideas are welcomed here.

FAQ about the ubuntu documentation efforts can be found at the DocumentationTeamFAQ wiki page.

Getting Involved

Great! You want to help. Here is a list of links to resources that will provide information on how to get started and become a productive member of the team.

If you are in a hurry, we suggest reading "ForTheHasty." This page is the project nuts and bolts in a nut shell. We highly recommend it to people with experience in Open Source documentation projects.

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.

  • DocteamGettingStarted - What we do and how to get involved.

  • DocteamLicense - The license used for the documentation produced by the team.

  • DocteamProjects - The documents we work on: a list of everything under development linked to document specifications, HTML previews and status informations.

  • DocteamWork - Programs and technologies. A descriptive list of the tools and technologies used in the project with links to relevant information.

  • DocteamServices - Collaborative community infrastructures. Information about the nature and purpose of the various networks services that facilitate our communications.

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 Following Books!

Eveyone interested is invited to dive in and check out the projects.

To contribute new content without needing to mess with subversion or docbook, one can just post them to the ubuntu-doc list.
