[Installation Guide] Call for contributors

[Phil Bull]

Hi guys,

I've put up a list of the roles available in the Installation Guide
team, and what I think their responsibilities should be:

https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Specs/KarmicInstallationGuide/TeamRoles

If you'd like to take on one of these roles, please reply to this post
with a short justification for why you think you'd be the best person
for the job. It's open to all, new contributors or old, and any
experience level. I'll select who I think are the best candidates once
there are enough people to choose from (be quick, probably by
Wednesday!). I'll also make sure that anyone who's interested but
doesn't get on the team finds something equally interesting to do
elsewhere in the wonderful world of documentation.

Please note that I'm looking for people who are prepared to make a
serious commitment to the project, which will run from now until the 1st
of October (Documentation String Freeze). I'm expecting the work to
require between 2 and 8 hours a week per person (although probably
closer to 3 hours most weeks). You'll also need to attend a weekly IRC
meeting, though it shouldn't matter if you miss one or two. If you don't
think you'll be able to spare enough time, please consider not applying
for this - there are plenty of other documentation tasks that need doing
which offer a much more flexible schedule.

I should probably list a few reasons why you might like to commit to a
voluntary project like this:

      * Wonderful experience, if you're into technical writing, editing
        or publishing; definitely something for the CV/resume!
      * You get to hone your technical and teamworking skills.
      * You get your name on a document with a potential audience of
        several *million* people worldwide, which may be translated into
        tens of languages.
      * You get to spread the Ubuntu love far and wide - installation is
        a *major* issue for users, so it's important that we make a good
        job of this.
      * I reckon it'll get on Slashdot or Digg when we've finished,
        which should be interesting...
      * Fun!

Let me know if you have any questions.

Thanks,

Phil
