	Your proposal for the documentation project should be submitted on cuLearn.		Your proposal for the documentation project should be submitted on cuLearn by just before midnight on Wednesday, October 3rd.

			Your proposal does not have to be very long at all. It just needs to have:
			* Your name and the name of your partner (if any),
			* The name of the open source project you wish to document,
			* The URL of the project's main development site,
			* A brief description of the project,
			* An explanation of how this project is useful from an operating system or systems administration perspective,
			* A statement of what kind of documentation the project already has,
			* and a brief description of the kind of documentation you wish to add to the project.

			Done concisely, this could all fit into a (somewhat long) paragraph. I'd suggest dividing it into a few paragraphs, though. You may use bulleted lists if you wish; however, note that in general I prefer complete sentences.

			Please do not propose to duplicate already existing documentation!
