[Lubuntu-wiki-docs] Lubuntu Manual status

[Phill Whiteside]

Hi Jonathan,

13.10 manual is a "not going to happen". What you have done, as I pointed
out in a previous email, is set up the structure for a manual.

Yes, it will need driving through. Do we, as lubuntu, have the manual
section as part of our wiki/docs team or do we need two separate teams?

This may all sound crazy, but for the people reading as cc'd. 13.10 is set
pretty much in stone. We now need to ensure our wiki area is updated for
13.10

Once, and during that, we have to start planning for 14.04 which is our
first LTS and *will* have a manual :)


Regards,

Phill,
