Hello,
while I am not a system or network administrator (in my day job I am a molecular biologist), I have been using IPFIRE for a while, first by setting up a router/firewall/proxy for a friend and now using it in my home. I am studying and experimenting quite a lot these days and probably I can help to improve the documentation. Even if English is not my first language, I use it every day on my job and I can write and communicate quite decently.
I already have in mind several modifications to the wiki, however I am not comfortable to do so without first some competent peer review, as I am not a professional and frequently I do get things wrong.
Is this effort welcome? If yes, where do I submit my drafts? Here, or in the forums? If the latter, which one? The developers or the general one?
Thanks,
Cheers.
Carlo,
Definitely, welcome aboard. We need people who will work on documentation.
I will be happy to review anything you put in, and I appreciate any comments you have on any articles, especially those I have done.

Hi Carlo,
having not much time - as usually in the last weeks - I couldn't write earlier, but as far as I can see: you're doing a great job. Many thanks for that(!) and welcome onboard from me, too!
Best, Matthias
