No problem with contribution, I am working on the wiki stuff but i am
happy for someone to take what I am doing, and pretty much copy / paste
in to the manual  text /  screen shots and format accordingly

Question this raises is that should the wiki manual and the
lubuntu-manual (pdf / printed like the ubuntu manual I assume) look the
same,  ? A wiki is an excellent community collaboration tool.  if it is
then a case of copy / pasting to a printed manual mark up document,  the
authors can concentrate on how it all looks.

Far less work, or rather far less reworking of what is already written. 
I got the time and date blog post from my site to the wiki fairly
quickly for example.

Just a thought

Paul
