Greetings - Thanks Yuri and Bernard for the pointers.  I completed the project 
I was working on - a 1st draft for Trojita - and while I'm waiting for 
revisions etc, I'd like to stay involved with the documentation project.  
Ideally, I'd like to make some fixes to the "Documentation Primer" to get 
other newbies pointed in the right direction (adding the link Yuri provided to 
a recent template, for example).

Can I just jump in, or should I work through someone else?  What is the team's 
preference?  Seems like you guys are over-worked and could use some help; I'm 
happy to lend a hand.

best, 
Randy
