Hello,

I had rea= ched out to Stephen Frost last week on GSOD slack. I = am Debjani, with 4 years of experience, currently working at IBM as an info= rmation developer to write release notes, create other customer-facing cont= ent including contextual help, user experience writing, filing bugs, by use= r testing new features, suggesting and helping the team with documentation = efforts and ideas. I have also contributed to Mozilla as an open source ent= husiast. You can find my resume here and Linked= In profile here.

I am interested in fixing th= e introductory tutorial available here (https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/tutorial-install.ht= ml) which is, in fact, a little difficult for beginners as stated and a= few changes from a tech writer's perspective could really get this going. = I also believe that documenting the patch submitting procedure could be an = add on to this because that is one of the things that contributors look at,= and the more contributions the merrier. 

Although I have not contribu= ted to Postgresql before but have contributed to other open source docs. I = have experience in migrating legacy docs to user manual format and I think = would be a great help. I also beta test applications at my current role and= can help write resources for beginners. Looking forward to your response, = so that I could submit a more formal application and draft up a proposal.
Thanks,
