> AM I TOP POSTING NOW!!  ;-)

we're nearly there... ;) Another good thing to remember is not to quote the 
whole of the previous email, just the relevant bit, so that people can 
follow the discussion. Check out this page: 
http://www.ubuntulinux.org/wiki/ListiQuette 

I'm not being bitchy, just trying to help! I appreciate your contributions 
to the list, these are just small technical matters.

I don't quite follow what you're getting at: i hope that my suggestion 
didn't imply any division between official docs and non-official docs. ALL 
the pages on the wiki are by their nature unofficial, and ALL are written by 
the Ubuntu community. In my email I don't think I made any reference to who 
is writing the documents. 

Hope this clarifies!
