Overview

This page contains many mini-specs for new guides for help.launchpad.net.

• Overview: A Launchpad project where we can register blueprints for new support materials and, if appropriate, users can file bugs against existing documentation.
• Goal/Deliverables: A project in Launchpad, several blueprints linked to mini-specs and a public announcement.
• Full spec: none
• Depends on: n/a

We will know we are ready to announce the project when we have registered it in Launchpad and have enough blueprints to cover the basics of Launchpad.

This guide will be ready for review when it has:

• an overview description of Launchpad and its role in the lifecycle of the projects that use it
• a description of how Launchpad handles collaboration and its suitability for the free software development process and community
• an overview of each of Launchpad's generally available applications (i.e. not Soyuz)

• a high-level description of how Launchpad interacts with Bazaar.
