Hi all,

Pull requests for Ansible have been huge for me and have allowed me to  
concentrate on steering/testing more so than banging out a lot of  
feature requests. Thanks very much for this. For those that are  
less wanting to dive into the Python, let me share another great  
contribution opportunity -- DOCS!

If folks would like to help update documentation, I am filing tickets  
at [https://github.com/ansible/ansible.github.com/issues?direction=desc&labels=&milestone=&sort=created&state=open](https://github.com/ansible/ansible.github.com/issues?direction=desc&labels=&milestone=&sort=created&state=open)  
about things we need to document.

The process is simple. Open a pull request to change the files in  
rst/\*.rst using Restructured Text Format.

Do not run "make docs" and include that in a pull request as that will  
make the diffs hard to read, so I recommend git commit on specific  
changes in the "rst/" dir only vs "git commit -a".

Features with "0.4" in the ticket should lead with the text "(New in 0.4)"

If you have a question about doc items, just ask on the associated  
github ticket.

--Michael

Just to clarify a bit. The \*.rst files are in an other repo: [https://github.com/ansible/ansible.github.com](https://github.com/ansible/ansible.github.com)
