[Bf-docboard] Can I proofread? Who to report to?

[bf-docboard@blender.org]

Hi Dave,

Thank you very much for your e-mail and for your enthusiastic
proposal.

The Documentation is currently undergoing a carefull editing
to reach completeness and match Blender 2.3 changes for
the end of October.

This is why many Chapters (3 to 16) are currently "freezed",
they are being proofread!

Actually they are much more 'up-to-date' on the CVS
than the PDF available on the site. I will personally
consider all your suggestions but beware than many
can bu 'unapplicable' if the text has already changed!

Stefano
