docs

[Peter J Etheridge]

Dear Erlangers,
It might have been after this;

http://erlang.org/pipermail/erlang-questions/2012-June/067311.html

that Ericsson did employ a few technical writers.
I seem to recall that their engagement was not long-term.
No doubt they did their best during their stint.

On 18 June 2018 Anton Larvik of WhatsApp on

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=87lW4Llsj7E

at 29:38 requests that Erlang be made,

'more approachable to new users'.

On 25 Jan 2021 on this list we read;

"I urgently need to locate an Erlang programmer in Amsterdam (or is
willing to relocate)...." - Richard Pearson.

How timely to read an offer [with humour] from a professional writer
with Erlang experience to improve the documentation;

"Happy to collaborate but can only contribute my ignorance." - LRP

Newbies applaud Lloyd's generous offer to work with any Erlang masters
willing to collaborate

Imagine how, if a fraction of the energy and time from Erlang masters
on the other thread might have contributed a much-needed example to
the documentation. Or, perhaps a link to an example of a functions'
use in Github?

Happy coding,

Peter
