I agree with keeping everything under the Ubuntu Documentation Project and not 
separating stuff for a few reasons.

I get bug mail for each docs package. Everyone is aware that I only work on 
Kubuntu documentation and contributed to Edubuntu documentation when I get a 
chance. Some may think getting ubuntu-doc bug mail is unnecessary but it really 
isn't. There are times a bug will get filed against Ubuntu for something we 
(Kubuntu) have in common, same goes with the other docs packages. A common 
thing shared between all of us are the 'Basic Commands' as well as some other 
things. It is good to read through these emails as it could affect your docs as 
well. Just my two cents.
