Hi Will, could you give the Docs Team some guidance about what to say about snaps in the the 17.04 desktop help?

Hi Will, thanks for your reply. So you think it's fine to document points 1, 2, and 3 above in the 17.04 desktop help? The reason I'm asking is that once Ubuntu 17.04 is released the 17.04 desktop help is basically available, without corrections, to the world for the (short) life of Ubuntu 17.04. S

Hi Pete, I've done a new draft (link below). Could you check the draft again? I added a step (step 8) about choosing a driver and installing it. I also added a brief note/warning about the "Device URI" problem. I think the warning applies to people who haven't followed the procedure, since anyone

@Gunnar. Can I create a page to document the Security & Privacy panel? It will be quite short.
