Hi! My name is Martin Scuncia. I'm from Argentina. I'm 20
years old.
I'm an engineering student. I had the experience of using several
linux distros, like ubuntu, debian, openSUSE. But I'm a fedora fan!
Now I'm using Fedora 13 (yes, an old version, hahaha), but soon I will
download the Fedora 18.
I never have worked in a linux project.
As an user of several different linux distribution, I was bothered by
various bugs. Those bugs allowed me to learn a lot of things,
specially solving hardware configuration problems, and working with a
lot of important packages. I'm a great fan of the terminal. In some
task, like installing software and packages, and working with
configuration modules, is a really fast tool; faster than using the
gnome. By the way, I prefer a gnome desktop instead of KDE.
I have some skills in networks configuration and administration. I
know a little python.
As an aerospacial engineering student, I have abilities on
confectioning technical documentation. My useful social skill for the
Docs Project is solidarity. I am always willing to help someone. I
wouldn't have learn anything about linux, if someone on the web had
not share his knowledge. I want to do the same, working for the
documantation project.

Welcome Martin!
You'll want to create an FAS account[1] if you haven't already done
so. You'll get a short list of busywork from the signin page there as
well. Let us know your FAS username, and we can sponsor you into the
Docs group. Many of the Docs writers idle in #fedora-docs on freenode,
and you're welcome to join us for both for help and to socialize.
If you have an idea of what you'd like to write about, the best approach
is to just start writing. Learning the markup is much easier once
you've got a bunch of copy to work with. If you need some ideas to get
you started, there is a list of bugs filed against the docs[2] or
existing guides[3] you could look over.
Whatever you decide to start with, know that we're all here to help and
support you.
