[FM Discuss] 2nd Mailing List: User Help, TuxPaint, & Outreach Manual..

[Austin Martin]

Hey everyone,

Ok, I feel like if I branched out these messages there wouldn't be much
content so I thought I would put them all in one, feel free to cut them out
if you feel appropriate. (Also I would rather not spam everyone with 3 when
they can be dealt with in one..)
*
2nd Mailing List - User Help*
- Right now we have a single mailing list for all FLOSS Manuals needs, I
think it is good that a lot of the notices are then centralized. However I
thought of the idea (maybe not the first person), of a Help mailing list to
where we can direct people to contact us on a wide arrange of software for
help. I myself have an arrange of about 7 different FLOSS apps that I use
frequently and could provide good help with. Obviously I think this would
only be a small supplement to the manuals component, but what I think would
be nice is if someone asks a question about a particular software. Or we
start getting substantial amounts of the same question we could implement
some of the questions into the manuals. Also, the same mailing list (name
changed a bit though), could be a way to provide suggestions of manuals and
other things.

*TuxPaint Manual*
- Mainly just a few questions on this:
-- What exactly is the process for making a new manual?
--- I assume I just click "Create New Manual" on the sidebar, and then I
assume I change the "Name of new web:" to TuxPaint and then what else
exactly do I need to change before I hit "Create New Web"?
-- Has anyone here used TuxPaint before?
-- Any suggestions on creating a manual about it?
-- And do you think the manual should even be made/should I focus efforts
somewhere else?

*Outreach Manual*
- One question for this:
-- Is there any current plan for this manual? Or for the chapters?
