Hello all, everything is in place for the manual... but we have
problem with screenshots.
Let's pass this barrier. It's very sad to have a manual finished and
not being able to release it because of such an issue.
The problem is that screens were captured at different resolutions,
all screenshots must be captured at the same resolution. In previous
releases we had a tool that ease the whole process but that doesn't
happen now.
We need your help to proceed. All screenshots must be captured at the
same resolution, we use 1024x768 as a convention for the oneiric
series. Note, that _it's a different thing to capture a screen and
then scale it to the conventional resolution_. We want all screens to
be captured at 1024x768.
@Authors: Please make sure that you have captured the screenshots at
the conventional resolution. Respond to this mail immediately ! I need
to know if you can do the job or not.
*I'm not author can I help ?
Of course you can.
*What are the screens that need to be taken ?
Check the draft 8 to see what the screens are. Before you start
capturing screens, let the project know that you want to be assigned
on some specific screenshots. I or the author will give you the ok,
within 12 hours.
*I've got the ok, and i captured the screens. What i do now ?
Well, you can commit the screens directly to our bzr branch (check [1]
for more info), or if you don't want to mess up with bzr you can
simply send the pics to me and i'll commit the screens to branch for you.
If you can't crop the screen, don't worry. We'll crop it for you.

Sorry for being unable to contribute to the project, but the last 1-2
months i was extremely busy.
Let me know what you think, feel free to express your thoughts.
Have a great weekend !
