New description:

 We want to make a user manual for Tor Browser that can be shipped with the
 browser.  The manual should cover basic Tor Browser functionality, address
 common use issues, and inform users how to get support if needed.  As of
 June 10, 2014, the status is that we imported most of the old "short user
 manual" into the new Mallard format, reworked and localized the
 [https://people.torproject.org/~lunar/tor-and-https/ "Tor and HTTPS"
 visualization], improved the introduction about Tor to give more insights
 about what Tor provides and what it does not provide, and set up [https
 ://tb-manual.torproject.org/ continuous integration].  The bulk of the
 work was done by Lunar and Matt.  We originally planned to finish this in
 Q2/2014, but ran out of time.  We're now returning it to the pool of
 documents to be written or updated and will make new plans in Q3/2014.
 That concludes this task.

Comment:

 Made some good progress, didn't finish in Q2, planning to reconsider in
 Q3.  Closing.
