Comment 7 for bug 742857

Hi again,

I moved the proposed document to language-selector, and updated the PPA.
https://launchpad.net/~gunnarhj/+archive/i18n-docs

I for one don't believe in targeting the least tech-savvy users only.
They don't need docs, they need hand-holding. OTOH, people who have used
various flavors of Linux for 15 years or so won't care about any user
docs either; they just open a terminal window and type the commands they
learned long ago. ;-)

I tried to identify things that are not clearly explained by the l-s
GUI, and type them down. I also tried to cover what people tend to
report bugs and ask questions about. One detail worth mentioning is that
the first thing people see is a link to the language-selector specific
page. It's intended to facilitate for those who seek explanations
directly related to the language-selector GUI.

Would suggest that the document is uploaded for Natty approximately as
is (btw, it is DocBook, David). Then let's give it a few weeks to
further consider the contents and suggest changes. I have not (yet)
prepared for translations of the help document, and it's intentional so
to not unnecessarily bother the translators with messages that may well
be altered or removed very soon. Hence I suggest that we provide an
English only help document in Natty, while making it possible to
translate it in time for Oneiric.

Btw, I think it would be nice if the help document could be fetched also
via the <F1> key, but have no idea how to do that.
