Message-ID: <x6ybiedm51.fsf@eyesore.no> (raw)
The Gnus manual is in dire need of some proofreading. It has been
rather thoroughly ispelled, but grammatical faults, unclear language,
misplaced commas, and other gaffes abound.
I'm not asking anybody to take on the gargantuan task of proofreading
the entire thing (220 pages now -- I printed a copy out yesterday) --
just do as much as you feel like. A chapter, a section, a paragraph
-- it all helps. Send me diffs for the gnus.texi file.
The beginning of the manual probably need proofreading less than the
rest.
Let the list know which parts you're proofreading to avoid having
several people go over the same sections.
You'll have my undying gratitude. And *great* fame as well -- I'll
mention you in the thank-you section. :-)
