We have had a really hard time historically putting a foot down and

coverage, but I think that should be a post-F7 plan, and in the ~45 days
we have before F7 release, people should work on improving the current
state of the DUG (or whatever we name it). Once that's in shape, it's
much easier for contributors to see how these documents should look in
finished form, and write new pieces in a consistent way.
You've discovered my secret scheme.
From what I saw yesterday, we are basically on that track. Focused on
fixing the problems, making consistent how-to over what-is, pushing
what-is content out to a reference guide where appropriate, and stubbing
out pages for the KDE content.
So, what I think we are doing is making room for KDE content, should
someone be interested in that. I guess that differs from your
recommendation in that you wouldn't even give lip-service to the KDE
content at this point. Fair enough.

OK, I'm going to accept this as meaning we are done with our work for
test4 and moving on. Let me know if I missed anything here; hoping not
to get any last-minute realizations that we missed the mark entirely.
I want to revert the entity behavior back to "xml2po -e" ASAP. Since we
have tagging at this point, and we're looking at a test release, I'd
like to make this change and free up the translators to fix the fuzzies
that happen at that point. Any objections? Does everyone know what I'm
talking about? And if so, could you *PLEASE* remind me to always -- no,
**NEVER** change that option. EVER. **EVER**. Really, it was awful
stupid.
FLOSS is experimenting and learning. Now we know. :)

Robert might want and need some help from a native English speaker as an
editor. Can we get a community member (someone not on FDSCo, perhaps?)
to volunteer to help him?
+1
There are a lot of people who have expressed interest in the
Administration Guide. Now is the time to "form like Voltron" and get it
done. You could be releasing beta in time for F7.
