Jerome,

I think what Matt and I are more concerned about the lack of prior notice
this was going to happen, the duplication of efforts placed into the
desktop guides and also the fact that this will not be translatted like
the rest of the docs.
Also the documents created by the doc team now seems a little less
official.  Look at the docs created by the "community driven documentation
team" versus find it in the Official Cannocial support book
