My name is Mathew Roberts.  I have had two major careers to date, one as an English professor (for about 8 years and then another 8 and counting) and another as a technologist (primarily a software engineering manager for eCollege, 2000-2008).  Looking to contribute to Floss.   Clearly the first and easiest thing I can do is copy-edit new manual material -- a huge amount of my teaching has been composition and technical writing, so that comes easily enough without any particular domain knowledge.  What I'd like to do eventually is contribute a chapter of my own to a manual --- right now I'm looking at Inkscape for example -- but to that end I'd need to become much, much more familiar with the tool.   Happily I'm in the market for a new open-source raster-based image editor anyway, so I'll probably give it a look.  Meanwhile I'll probably poke around in the Audacity manual as I'm much more familiar with that tool, and certainly do some sound-editing in a hobby capacity.


Best, and happy 2018 to all,


Matt
