Unofficial Ubuntu Faq?

[Ryan]

Hi Oliver,

Actually I did try contacting the canonical team about four weeks ago
when I first was thinking about the idea for the forums. Unfourtunatly,
the persons I was put in touch with never got back to me (busy with
warty I am sure). Since then I have made numerous attempts to contact
them and finally just put the forums out there. I understand they are
busy getting warty released and all...

Like I said before, I want to work with the Ubuntu team on this to make
it a even better community.

On a site note.. After talking with Jon, I'll be re-directing the faq
site to the wiki and joining the doc team..
