Run 'bzr info' and insure that the push and pull URLs are pointing at
the precise-e2 branch. If they're not, then you'll want to check out a
copy of the precise-e2 branch and work on that (bzr branch
lp:ubuntu-manual/precise-e2).

Those are all fine, depending on how the word Dash or Launcher is used:

  "The Launcher contains many icons."
  "There are many icons in the Launcher."
  "Those icons are called Launcher items."

I'll update the style guide to include that.

Thanks, Jim!
