Testing

We always need testing done and this is most easy and accessible way for inexperienced (and experienced too) to contribute.

Every month we participate in a QA testing of the Alpha, Beta, Release Candidate, and Final release images. If we don't complete the required testing then we risk not having an image release! This is very important.

User Documentation

The purpose of User Documentation is to assist users use Ubuntu Studio. This may seem obvious, but it more subtle and layered than people realize. This may include a vast spectrum of information including defining Ubuntu Studio, routing audio, tuning JACK settings, using Ardour, MIDI, and synthensizers, setting up for mixing/mastering, and many other topics.

Documentation, however, always needs to be reviewed, moderated, deprecated, and updated. And since one of our current goals is to completely reorganize the user documentation then we need help ever more.

The current user documentation can be found here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuStudio

The latest updated outline for new user documentation can be found here, please ignore the "video" nomenclature: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuStudio/IntroTutVideos
