Hi all,
For those wondering who I am, Benjamin has asked me to coordinate the
process of editing the manual. Currently we have various people chipping in
and editing bits and pieces of the manual as it is written. This is fine
(actually it's fantastic!) and is a good way to make sure the end resul
Wiki page ToC and blueprints now all reflect the new Table of Contents.
Just waiting on Joe to update the LaTeX stuff.

Well, I think that creating a site for the manual is not really worth
it. I think the wiki is doing just fine, and it is not because I am
being mediocre or anything, but I just think that the manual itself is
all there is to the manual project, so a site would be unnecessary and
hard to fill out.

Yes you can use translations on Launchpad. We have it all set up, so just

The manual is not guaranteed to be on the Lucid install, but that's what

Hello. I just joined the list. I would like to know if it will be possible
to use Launchpad for translations of the manual. I thinks it's very
important because this way translation teams can take care of the
translations.
I want to know also if it is going to come by default on the lucid install.
Yay!
