Description Róman Joost 2006-06-26 07:22:09 UTC 
The project site and/or the manual should provide a small description on how people can report spelling errors. That would probably be filing a bug report. Seems that most readers are unaware of using the gnome bugzilla.
Comment 1 Sven Neumann 2006-06-26 07:29:06 UTC 
Do you really want to require readers of the manual to get a bugzilla account in order to report a spelling error? What about simply providing an email address for this purpose?
Comment 2 Róman Joost 2006-06-26 08:10:46 UTC 
Sven you're right. Filing a bug by an anonymous person makes no sense (even if he's possible to file a bug anonymously). I'll add a note about reporting spelling errors to a single email address.
Comment 3 Michael Schumacher 2006-06-26 12:31:44 UTC 
A bugzilla account is certainly overkill for occasional typos, but if someone wants to do in-depth checks for some pages (as in 'web page'), it could be useful. The note should mention this, provided that you agree with me.
Comment 4 Róman Joost 2006-07-10 12:16:35 UTC 
I agree with you Michael, but haven't added the note. I think if someone sends a lot of in-depth bugfixes for typos, I should still be able to ask him, if he can file a bug report for that.

Resolving this bug as FIXED.
