Public bug reported:

[Impact]

 * Inappropriate documentation was shipped from 11.10 with 12.04 as it
was not updated

 * Preparatory to the 12.04.3 release updated offline documentation has
been prepared to serve users

 * This follows from our documentation rejuvenation effort in 13.04 to
bring documentation up to effort.

[Test Case]

 * Open documentation, it should claim it is for 11.10 which is not the
correct version of the operating system

[Regression Potential]

 * Risks are minimal except that users may have been relying on outdated
documentation since release.  This would remove that risk from users
that has existed from the release of 12.04 and ensure that from the new
point release forward proper documentation is available.

 * Any documentation relied upon by users showing tips or tricks will
not carry over to the new documentation.  As the old documentation
related to a prior version of the operating system this is considered a
minor disruption as documentation should in fact relate to the version
at-hand.

[Other Info]
 
 * Documentation continues to be prepared in DocBook

 * Sponsored upload will be required in this instance as knome does not
have upload rights though he has commiter rights.  The branch will be
linked after the bug is posted.

 * There will be a need eventually to broaden the number of commiters
for Xubuntu documentation.  That will need to be addressed at a later
date.
