Thanks for this.

This would be the about page and the release notes? Where are they
stored and maintained?

I'm busy putting some planning structure to the handbook on the doc team
wiki page like the other docs. This should help to open the
collaboration in the various sections. I understand Scott Balneaves is
writing the LTSP sections for Edubuntu. Presumably this would go
straight into the handbook.
Of course the question of duplication comes up again. In order to make
Feisty release it would make sense to focus handbook efforts on areas
that distinguish edubuntu from ubuntu (LTSP, SCP etc.) without
duplicating too much of the ubuntu documentation but referencing it.
The Topic Based approach therefore greatly interests me in the context
of the handbook. How do you think we should proceed with this? Are there
any specific pitfalls or areas we should be watchful for?
Many Thanks and Best Regards,
