Ubuntu Help: what it should/shouldn't include

Hi Matthew,

I've reviewed internet.xml and musicvideophotos.xml and have tried to
identify sections which I think are very likely to be unnecessary.

 * I think that items marked D are cases of gross duplication of
existing, good documentation.
 * I think that items marked U are unnecessary because I think that most
users won't be interested in them.

I propose to move these topics into ubuntu/misc, where they will not be
released. Does this seem reasonable?

== internet.xml ==

D # 2.3. Install a firewall
U # 2.4. Monitor network traffic
U # 2.5. Analyze network traffic

D # 3.1.3.1. Adding and removing toolbar buttons
D # 3.1.3.2. Changing the theme
D # 3.1.3.5. Extending Firefox
D # 3.1.4. Handling private information in Firefox
D # 3.1.5. Searching for things on the web
D # 3.1.6. Bookmarking pages for viewing later

D # 3.2.4. Using email signatures
D # 3.2.5. Searching for email messages
D # 3.2.6. Automatically organize emails using Search Folders

== musicvideophotos.xml ==

[Watching slideshows]
U # 5.3.1. Using F-Spot Photo Manager
U # 5.3.2. Using the Image Viewer

D # 5.5. Publishing photos on the Internet

[Rotating photos]
U # 5.7.2. Using F-Spot Photo Manager
U # 5.7.3. Using the GIMP Image Editor

Thanks,

Phil
