[Bug 1219951] Re: help.ubuntu.com/contributors.html should be removed.

 

While skimming through the existing list of contributors, I noticed
"Contributors to the Ubuntu Documentation Wiki" and "Authors of the
Official Ubuntu Book".  That prompted me to think about what material we
may be using that didn't originate with us but may be licensed such that
we need to provide attribution.

Whether the attribution is provided on this contributors page or
elsewhere is a separate issue/bug, I suppose.

All in all, I'm for deleting the existing contributors page.

Title:
  help.ubuntu.com/contributors.html should be removed.

Status in “ubuntu-docs” package in Ubuntu:
  In Progress

Bug description:
  contributors.html is not an accurate nor exhaustive list of who has
  actually contributed to the Ubuntu official documentation. In my
  opinion, it is virtually impossible for it to be accurate, or, if it
  were possible, to be kept accurate.

  It should be deleted.
