Hey Duncan,

The wiki always needs more people working on it, so welcome aboard. I
agree that UserDocumentation needs some major work.

However, I was wondering about the name of this page -->
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ManageGnuSoftware I wonder what you mean to
turn this page into and if it can find a better name.


Cheers and thankyou again,
Corey
