Hey, everyone,

Although we haven't worked out an exact schedule, here's the basic schedule for the booksprint:

Arrive in Paris and set up/get started at the Cite des Sciences: Saturday, July 5th Work: 6th-11th Finish and leave: Saturday, July 12th

Again, if anyone is interested in participating from afar, we've got a jabber room for the booksprint (booksprint@...24...), and we'll be present on Inkscape IRC as well for those who don't use jabber. Remember that we'll be in keeping somewhat with normal Paris time. It would probably be a good idea to keep in touch so that nobody is duplicating or conflicting efforts. It would be awesome to get help from all over the globe during the booksprint week!

Anyone who's planning on being involved should probably be familiar with these FM basics:

FM is really pretty easy to use, and fairly intuitive, so it shouldn't take much to get familiar. However, the more familiar we are with it beforehand, the more productive we'll be.

Any testing can be done in the Inkscape_Basic manual right now, since the "official" work is starting in the Inkscape manual right now. Please feel free to rip apart Inkscape_Basic, though, and don't do any real work there either.
