I agree. Unless you need to distinguish something that's specific to 13.10, you shouldn't need to mention the version number. Also, the manual is aimed at newer users and not those who have been using Ubuntu for years. So even if a feature is relatively new, you don't need to introduce it as being new. As far as readers of the 13.10 manual are concerned (as they're using Ubuntu 13.10) the feature exists; it doesn't matter when it was introduced. —Kevin _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-manual Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-manual More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
