Comment:

 We had a discussion about what exactly we need to decide in this ticket in
 our weekly meeting yesterday. We came up with three distinct topics:

 1) What format should the manual included have (It seems so far HTML is
 the favorite one?)?

 2) Where should it be made visible to the user? Ideally, the user would be
 able to consult the manual even if Tor Browser is not properly starting-up
 due to censorship restrictions.

 3) We need a process for shipping an up-to-date manual in every Tor
 Browser release. Especially shipping outdated translations seems like a
 thing we need to avoid. How could that process look like? Who would be
 responsible for which part in this case?

 Let's start from the questions/ideas above taking the previous comments in
 this ticket and the respective thread on tbb-dev
 (https://lists.torproject.org/pipermail/tbb-dev/2014-May/000051.html) into
 account.
