>Dear Sir/Madam,
>
>First, we'd like to thank you for taking the time to submit an application
>to be a developer for the Linux Knowledge Base Project.  For the record,
>this choice was not an easy one.  There were over 60 applicants for what
>ended up being 6 positions.  People were selected on the criteria of
>experience, skill, time available, and their reasons for wanting to help.
>
>If you received this email, it means that at this time we do not currently
>need your services.
>
>We will however keep all of the applications on record for when we need
>additional help in the future.  Furthermore, we hope all of you in the
>future will be category managers or write articles to be included in the
>database.  Expect additional announcements on the various news sites and
>comp.os.linux.announce over the next few months as we roll out the site.
>Of course you can always visit http://www.linuxkb.org/ for the latest
>news.
>
>On the other hand, many of you seemed eager to start working on articles
>or translations, and you can do this whether or not we're ready for
>submissions quite yet.  It will take some motivation and creativity on
>your part to come up with useful topics and get the documents written
>without supervision, but the documents themselves will certainly be useful
>in their own right.  If you are interested in working on this, we
>encourage you to check out the Simple End-User Linux (SEUL,
>http://www.seul.org/) publications group and the Open Source Writers Group
>(OSWG, http://www.linuxchix.org/techwriters/) as good fora for discussing
>topics and sharing drafts.
>
>Also, anyone who is interested in finding out more about what we're doing
>or have some ideas that they'd like to share, we'd like to invite you to
>join one of the linuxkb mailing lists.  We have two public lists:
>
>linuxkb-discuss   - A open mailing list for discussing any aspect of the
> Linux Knowledge Base Organization.  We will be discussing the
> current project as well as entertaining ideas for future
> enhancements/services for the site.  If you have any comments
>        about the existing site or ideas for new features we'd love to
>        hear them!
>
>linuxkb-announce  - A one-way moderated mailing list dedicated to
> informing the Linux community about the Linux Knowledge Base
> Organization.  All LKBO related news including new features,
> services, and their availablilty will be announced via this list.
>
>
>To subscribe, send an email to:
>majordomo@seul.org

>and in the body put:
>subscribe linuxkb-discuss
>-or-
>subscribe linuxkb-announce
