In particular in those areas they would greatly appreciate help, I assume this has always been the case. See somebody needs to WTFM, so others can read it. An article here or there doesn't cut it, while I'm not anywhere near as accomplished as you are, in a journalstic sense. I've done quite a bit of what i percieve as real advocacy. I have written an article for every issue of the FreeBSD zine to date, helped with several of the articles on the diary. Installed freebsd for many people, and walked lots of people through freebsd installation. No it's not a code thing.. its a mouth. verses work to accomplish thing.
