Hi Sylvie,
Thank you for your offer to help and your comment. Sadly, thus far we
have had just one response. That means that, apart from Kevin, you, me
and Sayantan Das nobody from the Ubuntu Manual Team has offered to help
contribute.
According to [1] we have 150 active members. I wonder if they have
received/read the latest e-mails on this list.
Unfortunately, we cannot start working on a new version of our manual
until we have enough contributors, which is very doubtful.
Best regards,
Hannie

Hi All,
Sorry for replying so late to Kevin's message, I've been very busy
these last months But I'm now a little more available and I think I
can help as editor and translator (but not as author).
The major change between 16.04 and 20.04 is the migration from Unity
to Gnome, but there's another subject that needs to be addressed and
hasn't been in previous versions of the UM, although it was already a
source of problems for people installing Ubuntu: installing on UEFI
systems. I know nothing about UEFI but some of you probably do :-)
Best regards to All,
- Sylvie

Hello to all UMP members,
I would be in favor of publishing our manual for the new LTS release
20.04. To do so, we need a lot of enthusiastic contributors who are
willing to spend some time on this beautiful project.
So far, no one has responded to Kevin's e-mail. Let us know if you
are willing to contribute. For further information, please have a
look at https://ubuntu-manual.org/getinvolved and

Hello, everyone.
Ubuntu 20.04 LTS will be released in April. I thought it might be a
good time to revive the Ubuntu Manual Project.
There are a couple things we'll need to do to start:
1. Take a census of authors and editors. We'll likely need to
recruit some more as well.
2. Determine which chapters and sections we'll need to update for
Ubuntu 20.20. We last released Getting Started with Ubuntu 16.04.
This was prior to migrating from Unity to Gnome. So we definitely
have our work cut out for us.
If you'd like to volunteer as an author, editor, or translator for
Getting Started with Ubuntu 20.04, just reply to this email.
Thanks!
