I'm a high school English teacher who is an entry level Ubuntu user, but 
I'd like to contribute to the community.  I figure that I can scour 
documentation looking for editing changes that need to be made.  I've 
tried looking at a couple of sources I uncovered here and/or google.  I 
thought I had a bit of a handle on what was going on until I saw Glen's 
contributions.  I can't figure out if what he's done to get this final 
product.  I definitely am going to need an off-line mentor to help me get 
started.  School  gets out today, so I'll be able to use some of my free 
time over the summer to work on this.  Anyone want to give me hand 
getting started?  

tnx
