If a lot of people are going to write manuals, do you think it'd be a good
idea to check who is writing on which topics, so that we don't end up with
some parts missing and others duplicated? Have you seen what is being done
already by the FreeBSD documentation project? They're working on multiple
languages too. I'll see if the guy who's organising it can give us a simple
summary of what is happening.

That depends on what you want to do. Do you want to start a User Group in
your local area? Bravo! Go right ahead. I'm a little unlcear about what you
want to submit, and why you would have to.

I think that there's #freebsd on dalnet and maybe undernet too. There's
nothing to stop you from opening #bsd-newbie if you want to. In fact I think
it's a wonderful idea! Would you want someone to be there who can answer
questions? If so, do you know anyone who'd be prepared to do that? Anyway,
you don't have to ask permission.

They want to, so let's see if we can agree on what our problems are
and what it is that we need to overcome them.

No need to wish. You have all the light you want already. Work with the
people who do the work, not against them, and they'll always listen to you.
Keep those ideas flowing!
