We will be happy to assist. Your questions are probably more appropriate to be sent to libreplanet-discuss http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/libreplanet-discuss , that is mentioned at the top of https://libreplanet.org/wiki/LibrePlanet:Teams/New, but it doesn't hurt to ask in more than one place. But, the basic steps are that you create a name for your group, a page on the libreplanet wiki, announce that your group exists and tell people some way for people to get involved with your group. For example if you have a meeting, you invite people to show up. -- Ian Kelling | Senior Systems Administrator, Free Software Foundation GPG Key: B125 F60B 7B28 7FF6 A2B7 DF8F 170A F0E2 9542 95DF https://fsf.org | https://gnu.org
