Hi Hannie,

I am very sorry that my pointers turned out to be more complex than I
anticipated. I believe I was not clear enough on what I meant.

Let us step back a bit and be sure we are on the same page (no pun
intended with respect to the subject of this thread).

My understanding is that you are already using git, and you have a
branch with your changes in the documentation. Therefore, you want to
know how to submit your changes in bugzilla.

Considering that, I meant to say that you should consider only the link
to submit a patch, not the previous steps about building a project
and/or installing Builder or jhbuild.

You found some roadblocks on your way, but please do not get
discouraged because of them. It may be an opportunity to improve our
documentation for newcomers ;-)

In my personal opinion, the only bad question is the question that is
never asked.

If you feel more comfortable, there is a mailing list especially
dedicated to newcomers:
https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/newcomers-list

Also you can ask also on IRC #newcomers or #docs. Feel free to ping me
whenever you see me there (gpoo).
