Great! I'll ask admins of Toolserver to make unix group "wikinews" so
we would be able to edit files together. Python is not a hard to learn
language. Learning shell scripting is much more difficult.
Note for others: If you know to edit wiki and you know to use command
prompt on Windows, it definitely qualifies you for option 3 ("willing
to learn"). So, don't hesitate to join. More people are in the "bot
team" means smaller response time for changes.

Hi Milos, everyone,
I've started learning Python and the pywikipedia framework, and have
recently written a bot on Wikipedia ([[en:User:The wubbot]]) I am keen
to get more involved in Wikinews, and was considering working on a bot
to do similar tasks, so would be grateful for any help. I don't know
much about GNU/Linux, but I'm certainly willing to learn.
