Also, if there are any further changes that need to be made to the
second edition of 12.04, then we need to get this committed soon. I'd
like the final draft to be ready by 20 August so that I can publish
the final version by the time 12.04.1 is released.

I've updated our website with these openings:
<http://ubuntu-manual.org/jobs>. Let me know if any other openings
need to be listed there.
