Overview
Just as it's easy to create your own Bazaar branch of code that's registered in Launchpad, you can also host your code on Launchpad. It's free and means that your code is:
- available for anyone else to download and work with
- publicly associated with the project it relates to
- ready to take part in public merge requests and code review.
The easiest way to get your code on Launchpad is to push your branch using Bazaar. Alternatively, Launchpad can mirror a Bazaar branch that's hosted elsewhere on the internet or convert existing Subversion and CVS repositories into Bazaar branches.

Instructional text
Where appropriate, use step by step instructions:
Step 1: Give concise and unambiguous instructions.
Step 2: Try not to state the obvious, unless you're writing for a novice user.
Note: Highlight important information with a note.
Step 3: Use a well cropped screen shot if it will help orient the reader. Don't let the screen shot replace instructional text: not everyone can see your screen shot. Don't worry about borders or annotation for small, cropped screen shots such as this.
Warning: If you're about to tell the reader to delete or otherwise change something that would be hard to restore, warn them.
