mdkeshriphani: it is a wiki at https://help.ubuntu.com/community11:27
shriphaniso the ubuntu documentation is it ?11:29
mdkeshriphani: it's a section of the Ubuntu online documentation11:29
shriphanihmm cuz philbull asked me to put my currently being written fluxbox docs there.11:30
mdkeyou could work on the existing material at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Fluxbox11:31
shriphaniI would rather put it at a different place. I want it to be seen and approved first.11:32
mdkeshriphani: it will be confusing for users if there are different pages about the same thing, so you should definitely consider improving the existing page; then it can be reviewed11:33
shriphaniokay.11:33
shriphanibut if mine's confusing and....11:33
shriphanicuz its almost completely different. different style etc. etc.11:33
mdkeshriphani: what sort of style is it?11:39
shriphaniI sent a mail to the mailing list with the more tech part attached to it.11:40
mdkethat's ok; the style is a little bit informal though. You can probably just remove things like "So you are eager to try this thing out. You can't wait and we know it."11:41
mdkeotherwise it looks fine and should merge ok with the existing page, no?11:41
shriphaniyeh.11:41
shriphaniso I just modify the existing page ?11:42
mdkei think that's the best way, just improve it, add more information, etc11:43
mdkehave a look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WikiGuide for some tips about style and a general guide11:43
shriphaniok.11:44
shriphaniany particular reason why that page is slow ?11:55
