You want to do something useful?

The biggest thing you can do for someone like me is to maintain a comprehensive, current, and easy to find glossary. I've just spent this evening - my first - looking into this Linux thing and I'd get a lot more out of it if I could quickly look up all the undefined words and acronyms that I've encountered.

If it's a hypercomplicated term, just tell me whatever I need to know to understand the sentence I was reading, say there's more to it than that, and you can stop there.

This wouldn't be as much fun as writing tutorials but I can't think of anything that would be more helpful.

Since I'm from Denmark, I do not intend to do a glossary list in English, but I'd be happy to help you with any problems you encounter!

For general computer terms, (not specific to Ubuntu) the following might help BABEL http://www.geocities.com/ikind_babel/babel/babel.html#M FOLDOC http://foldoc.org/

For file extensions: http://filext.com/ http://www.fileinfo.net/

and for info of all sorts on PC's, the PC guide http://www.pcguide.com/topic.html
