Hi,

The following thread is a rough transcript of the changes I have made to the 
Ubuntu User Guide. This version is not under revision control since SVN is 
down I have a local working copy that is not under revision control. I do 
believe a branch was made of the revision given to me. When svn is up again, 
I will to svn co and merge my changes into the branch. Patches will be 
created once I have a WC and can patch against the repos. Patches will be 
provided on a per file basis and attached in bugzilla. This log is just to 
give others an indication of what I am doing.

Please that in addition to recording the log comments have been inserted at 
problem points. Feedback is required for further action. Feel free to respond 
inline if you can answer a comment or have an idea.

# I was going to do a grammar check but after reading the content I realized 
that the title does not match the body. If this is about a background to 
Ubuntu then let's make it a background. I think the introduction part should 
be moved to a new section, need to think where to put it in the document 
structure. 
<sidebar>I don't think we should refer to Windows users etc. this should not 
hint at Windows vs. Linux debate. Also we should not insert private email 
addresses. All support, suggestions etc should be directed to the 
community.</sidebar>
