right now i'm writing the documentation for the new expert lotto 5. but there so many help topics to be covered so that with current rate it'll take me a couple of months to document everything.

would any of expert lotto 5 beta testers be willing to help me writing some help topics? most of the filters and stats are either quite simple or work the same way as in version 4.x and most of you are native english speakers so it shouldn't be that hard to write a paragraph or two to describe how a filter works.

any volunteers?

Hi, Stan:

I think the candidates for the job shoulb be familiar with V4 & V5 first. Second, a good English is necessary too.
So, I think Joe, Padawan and Jerzy are good at it. But I'm afraid that Joe is too busy for his implementing of plug-ins to help you to write the MENU now.

great. start with e.g. odd/even or low/high filters and try write a short description for them. including a few example tickets the filter accepts/rejects. and don't bother with text formating, i'll take care of that myself.

btw, there'll be some sort of reward for those will to help with help:)
