Thanks for announcing this, Gunnar. I've added this announcement to
the Ubuntu Weekly Newsletter so the broader community is made aware of
the ability to edit this documentation now.

It occurred to me when summarizing this post for the newsletter, that
it would be helpful to also include a reminder link on to how to edit
this documentation, so new comers not only know what this link means,
but how to submit merge proposals to the documentation. So here you
go: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DocumentationTeam/SystemDocumentation/UbuntuDesktopGuide
(thanks to everyone who keeps this page updated)
