I will take a wild stab at this one. Much of this is based on poking around a few developer sites that were doing things I liked. If you happen accros a particular software that catches your fancy, poke about in the docs for the home of said software. Go read how they are set up and what the listed contact method is and drop a line to whoever is listed as the contact person with whatever you propose to do. I imagine that said person will respond and let you know what to do. Lord knows that documentation never really gets the attention it should!

Where do you start? Who do you contact? Anyone with this kind of experience want to comment about this? Lord knows we need (more) tech writers to document what programmers have failed to clarify to the general public, etc. uak _______________________________________________ Twin Cities Linux Users Group Mailing List - Minneapolis/St. Paul, Minnesota http://www.mn-linux.org tclug-list at mn-linux.org https://mailman.mn-linux.org/mailman/listinfo/tclug-list
