Peter, yes - we do want to include the Mallard-based documentation in this release. To be clear, we also plan to update the existing Shotwell user guide (http://trac.yorba.org/wiki/UsingShotwell0.6) for this and future releases - it will not go away. The user guide will be linear (you can read it like a book) and comprehensive. The Mallard-based documentation will be topical and task-oriented, and may not include every little detail about everything Shotwell can do. I think these two documentation resources will complement each other well.
Robert's Mallard documentation is a good start, but there's more work to be done as Jim described in his comments on our Mallard ticket at http://trac.yorba.org/ticket/1143 . That ticket is currently assigned to David Velazquez. David, are you planning to complete the Mallard documentation following Jim's suggestions? Or Peter, do you want to work on that? We're hoping to ship Shotwell 0.7 by the end of next week, so we could use some help here soon. adam On 08/12/2010 02:30 AM, Peter DO Smith wrote: > Are you going to use Robert Ancell's mallard based documentation for this > release?
