Hi everyone,

I've updated the AddingRepositoriesHowto page for Dapper and moved the
Breezy/Hoary/Warty things to a subpage.


https://wiki.ubuntu.com/AddingRepositoriesHowto

https://wiki.ubuntu.com/AddingRepositoriesHowto/Breezy

We're also linking to the Kubuntu sibling now

https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KubuntuAddingRepositoriesHowto

Now, I think we could (and should) make it easier for people to find stuff
so..what if we renamed / moved the Repository-centric pages to something like..

https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Repositories

https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Repositories/Ubuntu

https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Repositories/Ubuntu/Breezy

https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Repositories/Kubuntu

https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Repositories/CommandLine

****

There's an introduction to the concept of repositories on

https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Repositories

which unfortunately needs revision, too.. I suggest we could use it as a front
page for all things repository-related and link off of it.

..comments?


----------

P.S. Oh, and I have a suggestion for the "Extra Repositories" section of the
Desktop Guide

http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/extra-repositories.html

The very last instruction reads

6. To apply your changes, select Reload.

Perhaps we could make it read as follows:

The next time you use the Synaptic package manager, click on the Reload button
to make it aware of the new software repositories.
