Hi,

So, the whole point is to use:
https://blueprints.launchpad.net/lubuntu-brainstorming

Instead of:
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Lubuntu/Brainstorming/Ideas

Fine by me (even though I never use the blueprint before which means it is
a great chance for me to start using it), but what shall we do with this:
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Lubuntu/Brainstorming/Ideas

Keep it? update it every now and then? remove it? we obviously do not need
double work so creating blueprints and then re-update the Wiki Page is
Double Work if you ask me. How about mention a note on the header of that
page with a link to the Blueprint:
https://blueprints.launchpad.net/lubuntu-brainstorming


Let me know your thoughts so that I can do the needful :)

Thanks!
