The Amarok page is nice as is, but I don't think it should be counted
as documention. It's more of a feature list.

Yes, the Manual is all one document; we were hoping that the QSG would
be the first bit into the Help menu while we were finishing the rest
of the Manual, but that didn't happen. Now it is just the first
section of the Manual.

I don't have a date yet, but it should be within the next week or ten
days. We're doing a final comb-through to catch errors, refine the
page order, make sure all images and text match Amarok 2.4, etc.

Very exciting to see it almost done! As soon as it's out the door,
I'll be asking you, Burkhard, how I can help in the next step.
