However, he's not happy with the title and awaits suggestions to change it. This is the chance for those readers who are always sighing how they can't contribute anything to Open Source because they're just not the technical kind of person. You don't have to know anything about Linux in order to help TLDP authors to create good documents. Sometimes it's enough to just come up with a bit of inspiration for a good title!</para></listitem>
