>I hereby announce this new third party forum section :
>Ubuntu Customization Guide
>http://www.ubuntuforums.org/forumdisplay.php?f=159 :-D
>
>What and why?
>* This is a work in progress.
>
>* If my guides have more exposure I can help more people and I get more
>relevant feedback.
>
>* This resembles Automatix, Easy Ubuntu and Ubuntu Guide. But it has
>another focus.

>* When compared to Automatix and Easy Ubuntu : I have a personal
>preference to do things with HOWTO?s.
>- -the user can (still) easily choose not to do some parts
>- -the user reads,sees and learns what is happening
>- -I want to provide links to relevant documentation for further reading
>
>* When compared to Ubuntu Guide :
>- - Ubuntu Customization Guide aims to be a quick start place for new
>forum/Ubuntu users while encouraging users to try to understand what
>they are doing.
>- - Ubuntu Guide recommends a different sources.list than I do.I include
>commented cipherfunk,wine and skype repositories. I try to integrate a
>conservative but useful selection of repositories. AFAIK a lot of people
>are using my sources.list. I try to keep it up to date it and I read the
>feedback in the discussion thread.
>- - I?m focusing on providing a useful (conservative) selection of Common
>Customizations.
>
>* This is the most important guide for Ubuntu Customization Guide. This
>HOWTO focuses on the most common customizations suitable for average
>users. Ubuntu Customization Guide - Quick Start :
>http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=186792
>
>FIRST STAGE : MAKING YOUR SOURCES.LIST READY
>SECOND STAGE : MULTIMEDIA AND PROPRIETARY/RESTRICTED FORMATS
>THIRD STAGE : OPTIONAL OPEN SOURCE SOFTWARE
>FOURTH STAGE : OPTIONAL PROPRIETARY SOFTWARE
>FIFTH STAGE : PERFORMANCE TWEAKS
>SIXTH STAGE : PROPRIETARY BINARY VIDEODRIVERS
>SEVENTH STAGE : REBOOT
>
>* I?m going to improve my performance guide :

>
>* I have some other ideas for guides.
