Hi everyone,

My apologies, I haven't been able to work on anything at all as my
connection at home is still dead (I've just switched to another ISP and i'm
still waiting for them to set up the connection). I'm just checking emails
at work for now.

Anyway, from the last that I've seen, there are several sections that
already have the complete text, mostly the first few sections we created.
The sections that I think still need work are Accessibility, Running Windows
Programs on Ubuntu, and the Login Screen. (Feel free to correct me if I'm
wrong, I think the last pull I did was several revisions ago).

All the other sections mostly just need a final run through to make sure
that there aren't any typos and that the formatting is consistent.

I think this is all doable by Nov 1, Monday next week. I hope to get my home
connection up within this week, so I think I can get back to working on the
tour by Friday, at the latest.

Let me know what you guys think of the Nov1 Content freeze deadline.

Thanks and best regards,
April
