I'd love to work on a documentation project, just for the
experience. I have a few years of doing user doc for Windows
desktop software, online Help using RoboHELP, HTML Help, etc. I'm
not sure I can volunteer my time but I could give you a reasonable
estimate for the work, as a free-lance project. Thanks.<br>

Manuals/PDFs like what you would get with shrink wrapped software.
It is good for the online/self-service stuff. I support various
software engineering tools so I wrote a bunch of documentation, screen
shots, faqs, etc. I now just point people to the Wiki page. </font>
