Wake up call (reminder)

 

Update:

So far, we have the following team members who offered their help as editor for UM version 18.04 (LTS):
Vedic Partap
Ricardo Grant
Edmond Condillac
Philip Harvey

To all others:

This is a good start, but we need at least 5 more active contributors (author/editor) to be able to continue. So, if you want to help us, please contact us as soon as possible. Thanks.

   To all other UMP members:
   This is my second and last call for help. If we do not get enough
   contributors, I will stop putting time and effort in this project.

   Regards,
   Hannie

           Hello team,

           Yes, it is time to wake up! The next LTS version, Bionic
           Beaver 18.04, will be published on April 26th. This will
           give us enough time to get our manual updated for this
           version of Ubuntu. Since Ubuntu has replaced Unity with
           gnome 3, there are some sections that need a complete overhaul.

           I have just approved all pending members. There are 58
           direct members of the "Ubuntu Manual Team" team, and 174
           people are members in total, directly and indirectly through
           other team memberships. See [1]

           I want to start making an inventory of team members  who
           want to contribute as an author/editor, see [2]. Please have
           a look at [3]. In this example, made for Xenial, you find an
           overview of all the chapters/sections that need an
           author/editor/reviewer. If you want to contribute, please
           let us know on this mailing list. If we have enough
           contributors to do the job, I will make a new spreadsheet
           for 18.04. If you have any questions, please contact us
           using this mailing list.

           Hannie
