Recently, I have seen multiple
proposals for:
* using the existing work on the wiki but dumping it to CD
* writing topic-based help documentation in Mallard
* using http://ubuntu-manual.org as a basis for an Lubuntu manual
It shows that there are many ideas, and many people which want to work
on it :-) The problem is the same : who want to contribute to one of
this topic ? There are not incompatible, we can continue to manage the
wiki, another person can manage the manual, another one working on a
manual. Of course, it's better if there is some coordination between
the 3, but the time you spend on coordination you don't spend it on
improving the documentation. I'll prefer if someone take the
responsibility to do 1 doc and try to manage it as much as possible
(meaning, be prepare to to do much of the work, and eventually advise
people who want to help).

This is the problem/benefit of documentation, there are several
solutions to a problem. This benefits users as one solution doesn't
always work for them. I don’t particularly like wikis, so find it hard
to develop any enthusiasm to deal with them. I do, however, like books
and therefore find, now I have time, that this is something I can get
behind. I'm also willing to help the docs team. As you say though these
things need somebody to drive them, and the enthusiastic volunteers,
with out the Lubuntu team spreading it's self too thin. This is why I
wanted to gauge interest before moving forward or not.
Now to see if i can get a webcam working for vUDS :/
