16)     <p>First, if you have a problem or question about using Tor, go look at the <a href="<page docs/documentation>#Support">Support section</a> for how to proceed. The Tor developers spend most of their time developing Tor, and there are no people devoted to user support, so try to help yourself before <a href="<page docs/faq>#SupportMail">politely trying to find a volunteer</a>.</p>

17) 

18)     <p>If you really do need to reach us, here are some approaches. All

19)     of these addresses are @torproject.org. Please be patient and <a

20)     href="http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html">helpful</a>,
21)     and please make sure to write your mail in English.</p>

23)     <i>tor-assistants</i> is the catch-all address for everything. It can be
24)     used for:
25)     
26)     <ul>

27)       <li>Contacting the people who manage the directory authorities. Use
28)       this if you run a Tor relay and have a question or problem with
29)       your relay.</li>
30)       <li>So we can fix typos on the website, change wrong statements or
31)       directions on the website, and add new sections and paragraphs that
32)       you send us. You might want to make a draft of your new sections
33)       on <a href="<wiki>">the Tor wiki</a> first.</li>
34)       <li>Hearing about your documents, patches, testing, experiences
35)       with supporting applications, and so forth inspired by our <a
36)       href="<page getinvolved/volunteer>">volunteer page</a> (or other
37)       problems you've fixed or documented about using Tor). There's no
38)       need to mail us before you start working on something -- like all

39)       volunteer Internet projects, we hear from a lot of excited people
40)       who vanish soon after, so we are most interested in hearing about
41)       actual progress.</li>

42)     </ul>
