Quickguide and Desktop Guide

[Venkat Raghavan]

There is some confusion over the Quickguide and Desktop Guide and as to 
whether both are going to be shipped etc. 

I think that QuickGuide is a good graphical introduction to Kubuntu. It 
approaches things from the application area. The Desktop Guide tries to 
answer from the "How do I do this..." perspective. 

The Quickguide is a pretty good document, which deals with more basic stuff 
than the Desktop Guide (IMO). However, I have issues with shipping both 
guides

Issues: 
* Unfortunately there is a lot of overlapping material, especially in the 
applications section. 
*  Presenting two sets of documents to the users may confusing (more so with 
overlapping material)

It think it is much better for us to ship one document, and I am proposing 
that both be integrated. (and yes, i will do the integrating too). 
Screenshots in the desktop guide might be a good idea for new users. 

This may however not be a good idea with one week to the doc freeze (not 
considering dapper delay proposal).

Ideas, tips and suggestions welcome.

Regards,
Venkat Raghavan
