That sounds good, I think we can make that.

The main chapters I would say need work are the following:
-Accessibility
-File Manager
-Firefox
-Evolution
-Wine

In the last meeting we decided to remove the login screen chapter, because
most of the material we could think of for it ought to go in Accessibility
or with info on user setup.
