All,

* At today's Ubuntu-Manual meeting, a string freeze for the Maverick 10.10
Ubuntu Manual was set for *May 14, 2011*.
*All Maverick Authors and Editors* should be in the mode of completing their
final revisions in anticipation of this date.  If you need assistance in
completing your Maverick content or copy edits, please email me.

* At the same meeting, Milestones for the upcoming Natty 11.04 Ubuntu Manual
were announced.
