Hi Carthik

Just to comment on the bits Stuart didn't:

Thanks! By the way, Malone has its own product in Launchpad. 
<https://launchpad.net/products/malone> (We noticed that you reported 
quite a few Malone bugs in the Launchpad product.)

To ~99% of people, everything they can see on Launchpad should be 
obvious without resorting to documentation. When that's not true (and 
it's often not true at the moment), that's a bug that should be fixed, 
rather than a reason to write documentation. We'll probably start 
writing help for the remaining ~1% once we're doing a decent job 
handling the ~99%.
