For reporting bugs and proposing patches the risk of introducing mistakes is too low to matter as the package maintainer will review before applying. Being "bashed" by experts should not happen, regardless of whether your contribution is correct or not. Please report any instances to the service maintainer (listmaster@ for lists.debian.org, owner@ for bugs.debian.org, etc.). > If there would be some expert instance for proof reading my suggestions, > then I would like to actively participate in improving the documentation. Please do feel free to edit the FAQ in my signature without asking. I am subscribed and will review any contribution (including removal of irrelevant content)[1]. Just in case this is not obvious, this applies to anybody, not just Marco. While I'm by far not an expert I do have enough experience with Debian to provide a reasonably good safety net. In case of doubt we can discuss major changes here or even ask the experts. [1] some entries should probably be replaced with pointers to the respective canonical documentation.
