Hi Albert,

We want to move the docs *wiki* to the KDE wiki system.

We present our finished docs in two places: the most important is in
the ISO, and the other is on http://docs.kubuntu.org. So our finished
docs wouldn't change, except that we hope that we will also have
translations. Right now, we have none of those wonderful translations.

IF the web team is cool with us using the KDE userbase wiki to work on
Kubuntu docs, then we will write to the translation teams and see if
they are willing to help us out that way. There are Kubuntu
translators who are willing to help as well, but there is no easy way
for them to do that right now. The userbase translation plugin would
be really helpful to us.

I think it would be difficult for KDE to allow us to present our
finished docs on kde.org i= nfra, when other distros don't do this.
