      o To write about favourite subjects really, things I find
        interesting and have a strong enthusiasm for (storage mainly
        but I am known to dabble in many fields)
      o  I wouldn't mind doing a bit of editing now and then.

Chris:

Welcome. Feel free to look around (http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Docs/Drafts/ and /cvs/docs) to see what exists and what is being worked on. You might consider diving in to work on expanding/updating storage for the Administration Guide (http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Docs/Drafts/AdministrationGuide at the moment, but we are doing an XML conversion as a beta/interim release.)

Another place always need writers throughout the release cycle is for the release notes, which are doing in the wiki at http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Docs/Beats/. You can focus on just areas that interest you, signing up at http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/DocsProject/ReleaseNotes/Beats. If you don't see a category for what you want to write about, you can suggest adding it.

cheers - Karsten
