Get final merges in to Ubuntu Docs

[Phill Whiteside]

Hi,

please bear in mind that I'm not currently here..... If, by 14:00 UTC on
13th Sept you need things proof reading I will do so over the weekend. I'm
on light duties, so errors will be reported back to this mailing list. I'm
on a weekend off to recharge my batteries, but Sunday is expected to be
rain all day.... I can catch up with a "good book" then, if it would be of
help. If the entire file is somewhat smaller than the average ISO, I can
pull it in later. I'm on 3G from tomorrow afternoon (UTC)  so hundreds of
Mb files will cost me money :)

I'd need the link to get entire system installed, and fool proof
instructions! (I'm already running 13.10 as my system).

Regards,

Phill.
