Thanks! I'll poke around as soon as i get the time. I think we have a ubuntustudio group that has access to the wiki, but i need to remember which one.

This said, so is development. Musicians, Artists, designers etc, are welcome to help developing, but there is no short cut to it: you need to learn the tools to do it and they are rarely very artistically intuitive. However these type of contributors are often more comfortable with PR, documentation and promotion. That means signing the code is the most abstract thing they'll have to do. I'm not saying it's a prefect process, and i agree that beggars can't be choosers. But it is my opinion that we need some kind of sign of moral commitment to the project, or we could as well just make everything public. I hope i make sense. Perhaps the entire embarking process is a good place to start with the documentation update? Thank you for taking the time, Mikelococo! -- Set Hallstrom aka sakrecoer
