That looks very interesting. I've now read the threads you linked.
There seems to be the question of whether to build a new Tour
application or show Help on startup. A custom made tour could have a
better experience, but I'm not sure it will be done in time for 11.10.
Help already exists and only needs a "Don't bug me again" button to
make it an acceptable welcome screen. I suggest to go for the Tour
application, but fall back to using Help if it's not done in time, or
the results are not what we hoped for. What do you think?
