I'm astonished you think the Ubuntu docs are superb, and I'm on the 
Ubuntu doc team. Indeed, the docs are one of the things that get most 
criticised in reviews and feedback. Could you say which docs you used, 
what was so good about them, etc?

And conversely, why the FC3 (which I've never used) docs are so poor? 
(I must admit, from browsing the various FC3 websites I thought the 
docs were pretty good.

Please spare a thought for Ubuntu and tell us why it seems slow.
