[Koha-devel] Developer Documentation

[Nicole Engard]

Of course I can :) It was Nicolas at BibLibre - and maybe some others
over there.  Also it was something I asked for first ;) so I could
find documentation on how to participate and it was suggested that as
doc manager I could work on that - but I can't do it alone cause I
don't know the rules :) -- catch 22.
