I would like to add that we passed a motion that Brian (btiffin) is the lead of the committee.

Brian, please sign me up for the committee. I will be glad to work under your direction.

Kind regards,

Is this post by btiffin:
============
Add1 OpenCOBOL Documentation Committee
Hello,

This is the beginning of a community effort aimed at adequate and acceptable documentation for the OpenCOBOL project and documentation to further the advocacy aims of the ADD1TOCOBOL initiative.

Subcommittees will be formed covering at least

User Guides; New to COBOL, New to OpenCOBOL, FAQ

Developer Guides; Building OpenCOBOL, Extending OpenCOBOL, Assisting in development of OpenCOBOL

Best Practices; Established Programming in the Large and Long Run COBOL development principles and guidelines, with style suggestions and some freedoms of choice.

ADD1TOCOBOL Source Code Repository Peer Review and Acceptance Standards. Strict adherence before submissions will be published. This includes license choices, a checklist of peer signoffs and community veto or vote to accept.

Suggested source format for documentation is ReStructuredText. A reference implementation being included in Python's docutils. ReST markup can emit, among others, (CSS controlled) HTML and LaTex. A Haskell application, Pandoc, can be used to read ReST and output a plethora of formats, including the critical Texinfo sources.

More soon and thanks for listening.
Cheers,
Brian Tiffin
