After a quick look, I suppose combining at least "how do"/"how to"
with question mark and/or "please", I think we can rule out a great
amount of rows...<br>

I think that looking at this we could manage to condense a
bunch of repetitive questions that pop from time to time, if
you think there is something to add to my greps please tell me
and I will add that too. Else I will start to parse this
results for the most common questions I can find.<br>

Again, thank you all who do Xubuntu, and have a nice day. :)<br>

This is a fantastic idea for Xubuntu. Yes, many of these
should be<br>
intuitive. Some are, but most are issues that many new people
ask over<br>
and over in #xubuntu. I am quite sure these are not all the
things it<br>
would be nice to point to, either. Let's get a list together
and post<br>
it on the <a moz-do-not-send="true" href="http://xubuntu.org"
target="_blank">http://xubuntu.org</a>. It will not only be
a very useful aid for<br>
new users, but a way to draw/push those same users to the
website.<br>
<br>
If you would like to see an item on this list, please submit
it. We are<br>
closing submissions in two weeks, which will be 2011-07-13.<br>
<br>
Thanks for helping make Xubuntu greater than it is!<br>
