+work to help support our mission.  You can usefully help with
+webmastering in as little as an hour a week, or as much time as you
+have.</p>
+
+<p>To see what our typical tasks look like, please check our <a
+href="/server/standards/README.webmastering.html">Webmastering
+Guidelines</a>. You may be disappointed to find out that these tasks
+don't call for the elaborate webmastering techniques that are
+standard nowadays, but on the other hand they are very diverse, and
+often will require quite a bit of inventiveness on your part.
+Moreover, they will give you experience in dealing with people and
+complex organizations, a skill that may be applied to many other areas
+of life.</p>
+
+<p>If you feel comfortable with our routine tasks, please answer the
+following questions in English as best as you can, and email them to <a 
href="mailto:address@hidden";>&lt;address@hidden&gt;</a>.
+(If you don't feel like becoming a GNU webmaster after all, there are <a
+href="/help/help.html">other ways you can help the GNU Project</a>.)</p>
