PSPP needs some tutorial type documentation, so if you're familiar
with how to use it, and you are good at technical writing, then that
would be a good place to start.

Hi!
My name is Dan Kappus. I am looking for a small software project to work
with. I want to learn software documentation (docbook, xml, all that) by
doing.
My skills include
*rudimentary knowlege of C/bash/shelltools
*HTML
*understanding of basic statistics
*above average copyediting and language skills, honed by lots of coursework
My interest in PSPP is that I am a statistics student, and hope to be
going to graduate school evenutally in the social sciences. PSPP lets me
do basic useful statistics without paying a huge license fee. I'm never
going to be a compsci wizkid, but I would like to make a contribution of
time because I use lots of GNU software. Perhaps I could make this
contribution here.
