Volunteers need personal guidance from more experienced volunteers.
It is easy to give up trying to figure out what to do on your own.
Endless nested emails don't help.
Volunteers should be given levels according to their time in the
project.
So a level three is guiding level two, level two is guiding level
one etc.
When a fresh volunteer joins, the head of the project is assigning
him a personal tutor.
With a close guidance, learning, confidence and motivation are much
better.
Edwin;
The ideas are very good. The question is one of manpower and knowledge.
At the momnt we do not have active volunteers with knowledge in tech
writing and publishing processes to do the tutoring and hand holding. If
you have any ideas on how we can recruit people at that level we would
love to hear them.

had 15 or more people volunteer to help. But of the offers of
help,
not many ultimately contributed.
Why is this so?
