We have built tours in the past, see: http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/releasenotes/704tour What hasn't happened is we haven't had a holistic strategy with regards to existing pages, such as /server and /desktop. What I would like to see for this release is a such a strategy. What is probably best would be for the /desktop and /server pages to be updated with a "new in 7.10 content" and then maybe create a "new to Ubuntu page". Is what you were thinking Gerry?
