<p>hi mick & all,</p>
<p>i'm sorry, i haven't managed to think further about this one
& as quite some time has passed it's probably a bit late now.
to be honest i'm feeling quite distant from FM at the moment,
since i have not needed to use it. we are working on a new build
of UpStage now so until that is ready i won't be working on a new
manual for it. (if anyone out there is interested in how UpStage
is being rebuilt, you can follow it on github,
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://github.com/upstage-org/limelight">https://github.com/upstage-org/limelight</a>)</p>
<p>i guess what i would like to have in a manual for FM is the
updated version of the link mick's given below. but i would want
it to be specifically about how to create a manual, i don't need
to know anything about book sprints or see photos of people having
a nice time making a manual. i want something that lets me very
quickly & easily find the information that i need to get
going, & get it published.</p>
<p>at some point in the future i may have time to contribute to such
a manual, but i'm not sure when & hesitant to commit as my
life is pretty full at the moment ... sorry ...<br>
</p>
<p>h : )<br>

Hi there, <br>
<br>
There used to be a manual about FLOSS Manuals!<br>
<br>
<a moz-do-not-send="true" class="moz-txt-link-freetext"
href="http://web.archive.org/web/20100617034354/http://en.flossmanuals.net/FLOSSManuals/BookSprints">http://web.archive.org/web/20100617034354/http://en.flossmanuals.net/FLOSSManuals/BookSprints</a><br>
but this is very out of date. <br>
<br>
Another possibility is updating the web pages at flossmanuals.org<br>
I'm thinking the advantage of that, is that an update to those
pages needs to happen anyway to reflect the shift from FM away
from taking on the writing of commissioned manuals and more to be
community focused. <br>
<br>
I'm imagining Helen that you are thinking of useful information
for people that want to volunteer some time to help improve FM.
What kind of contents would be useful?<br>
<br>
Thanks<br>
Mick<br>

great that things are happening :)
it would be good if there was somewhere online where this kind of info
could be accessible, like a manual for floss manuals ... is there such a
thing?

<pre wrap="">A manual for flossmanuals -- that's poetic.
