Re: Getting started for Gnome outreach

[Sindhu S <sindhus live in>]

Hi, Soumya!

How comfortable are you with Git? If you could hang out on our IRC channel (irc.gimp.net) #docs we'd be happy to teach you how to use Git and get the source code for any project, edit the files, make a patch and upload it to the bug page :) 

I am a recent intern with the Documentation team and I'd love to help you hands on, let me know when you'd be available on chat and ping me on my nick "ingu".

This should be covered by
https://live.gnome.org/DocumentationProject/Contributing
In short: check out the gnome-user-docs module from GNOME's Git code
repository, test the current behavior in GNOME 3.8/3.9, change/update
the documentation file accordingly, create a git-formatted patch that
includes your changes, and attach the patch file to the corresponding
Bugzilla report.

Have you explored https://live.gnome.org/DocumentationProject a bit?

Cheers,
andre
