Comment(by hamish):
I rather disagree, and propose that they be re-enabled in the QGIS
quickstart for 6.5.
The QGIS user guide (11mb) is part of the help text for the program and
therefore hold pride of place along side the executable binary. It's a
complete no brainer AFAIAC.
The Gentle Guide to GIS (4.7mb) is a wonderful eBook for GIS beginners (I
hadn't known about it before now), starting QGIS, and is a great intro to
what you'll find in many of the projects on the disc. We should have more
things like this on the live DVD, and take pains to promote them further.
While not specifically a dependency of any software project on the disc,
either is the "getting started with ubuntu" or OGC overview docs, and yet
I think we'll all agree that it is useful for them to be there.
best,
Hamish
