== Let us know you exist ==

{{http://www.skolelinux.no/slschools/worldmap.php?lang=en&image=worldmap.png}}

There are Debian Edu users all over the world. A very easy form of contribution is to let us know you exist and use Debian Edu - this motivates us very much and therefore is already a valuable contribution. :-)

The Debian Edu projects provide a database of schools and users of the system
to help the users find each other, and also to have an idea about where
the users of the distribution are located.  Please let us know about your
installation, by registering in this database.  To register your school,  [[http://wiki.debian.org/DebianEdu/ReferenceSchools|use this web form]].

== Contribute locally ==

Currently there are local teams in Norway, Germany, the region of Extremadura in Spain, Taiwan and France. "Isolated" contributors and users exist in Greece, the Netherlands, Japan and elsewhere. 

The [[DebianEdu/Documentation/Buster/Support|support chapter]] has explanations and links to localised resources, as ''contribute'' and ''support'' are two sides of the same coin. 

== Contribute globally ==

Internationally we are organised into various [[http://wiki.debian.org/DebianEdu/Teams/|teams]] working on different subjects.

Most of the time, the [[http://lists.debian.org/debian-edu|developer mailing list]] is our main medium for communication, though we have monthly IRC meetings on #debian-edu on irc.debian.org and even, less frequently, real gatherings, where we meet each other in person. [[http://wiki.debian.org/DebianEdu/NewContributor|New contributors]] should read our [[http://wiki.debian.org/DebianEdu/ArchivePolicy||archive policy]].

A good way to learn what is happening in the development of Debian Edu is to subscribe to the [[http://lists.alioth.debian.org/mailman/listinfo/debian-edu-commits|commit mailinglist]].

== Documentation writers and translators ==

This document needs your help! First and foremost, it is not finished yet: if you read it, you will notice various FIXMEs within the text. If you happen to know (a bit of) what needs to be explained there, please consider sharing your knowledge with us. 

The source of the text is a wiki and can be edited with a simple webbrowser. Just go to  http://wiki.debian.org/DebianEdu/Documentation/Buster/ and you can contribute easily. Note: a user account is needed to edit the pages; you need to [[http://wiki.debian.org/UserPreferences|create a wiki user]] first.

Another very good way to contribute and to help users is by translating software and documentation. Information on how to translate this document can be found in the [[DebianEdu/Documentation/Buster/Translations|translations chapter]] of this book.
Please consider helping the translation effort of this book!
