Subject: Looking for a few expert proof-readers for the Emacs 26 Manual

Hi everyone,
We've gotten a decent response so far from proofreaders for the upcoming 26
manual. What would be nice is to have the eyes of both a general reader (who
can spot confusing language) and an expert (who can spot inaccuracies) on each
section.
Would any of the developers here be willing to review one or more of the parts
below (the lines indicated within each Pt section), to add more experts to our
completion list?
We also have 15 parts still with no proof-readers at all. If you have friends
who might be interested in helping out, please let them know to send a message
to emacs-manual-bugs@gnu.org!
