Replying to [comment:30 runa]:
> It will be shipped with the packages, but not inside the packages. The
manual explains how to verify the package you downloaded, and also how to
extract the package archive. Putting the manual inside the package won't
make any sense.
Ok, let's step back. One point of the user manual is to help users
without, or with unsafe, web access to torproject.org, to configure tor
correctly, and get some basic questions answers.
Another point is to provide "tor in a nutshell with quick debugging tips"
for users. This should help explain Tor to new people and maybe reduce
support requests.
We need to have the tor manual included with the packages. What's included
already is too confusing for most users. If it's not there by default, I
imagine few will know how to get it.
> Also, I suggest we update the text on check.torproject.org to say "Hey,
if you need help, download this fancy user manual".
We should integrate this with the new check html. Do we do this for
failures only? or as the default doc for /docs?
