Hi Josh,

Thank you for getting the site up.
I'll add the note and link from
help.ubuntu.com

What is the list of people that have sufficient rights to cause
an update to the published web pages?

I ask because this is a very restricted list [1] for help.ubuntu.com,
on purpose. Additionally, I almost always publish on my own web server
first, to check, and have others (typically Gunnar) check before going live.

I worry about the potential for abuse, while at the same time welcome the ease
of use.

Actually, I only see the edit button available me for some pages. Why is that?

Great.

One of the reasons we were anxious to see the compiled and
published web pages was so that we could see if those internal
links that were "???" would get sorted out. They don't, so
that'll have to be figured out. Example:
The first paragraph of [2] the ??? is supposed to say this:
"Remote Administration"
And the link is supposed to be to ... huh? ...
Oh, that chapter cover section is gone. Oh!, maybe
that is why the link is busted (it just so happened
to be the first one I tried).

O.K. So I went to look at the edit I did under the virt-install page,
But it is gone. What the hell? I see some recent edits deleting
very very important stuff. Why? I wrote that stuff and want it to stay.

I guess I had better get a 20.04 server going so that I can test
that these thing still work or maybe got changed.

I'll be back at a later date.
