I updated the Front Page by adding some words, and also fixed Tomcat logo image. > 2) Anyway, I did that, and the sentence then goes on to say that we should > then send that new login name to the dev or users list, asking to be added to > the ContributorsGroup.

Welcome! I see that Christopher have already added you. Regarding the documentation, I think the first step is to get familiar with how the docs are built. There is http://tomcat.apache.org/bugreport.html#How_to_submit_patches_and_enhancement_requests -> "To prepare a documentation patch..." The source code for Tomcat can be taken from SVN or from a Git mirror. It does not matter which one is used as long as you are not trying to commit it. Either tool or just Unix "diff -u" can be used to create a patch. The source code for "tomcat.apache.org" site is only in SVN. SVN commands can be used to checkout only relevant portion of the site (skipping megabytes of documentaion/Javadoc for all releases of Tomcat) There is a Readme, https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/tomcat/site/trunk/README.txt Best regards, Konstantin Kolinko --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tomcat.apache.org
