<p style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0">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.</p>
