[Audacity-quality] Important new page in the Manual

[Peter S. <pet...@gm...>]

this morning I have just added an important new page to the Manual
https://alphamanual.audacityteam.org/man/Updating_from_Audacity_2.x_to_Audacity_3.x
<https://alphamanual.audacityteam.org/man/Updating_from_Audacity_2.x_to_Audacity_3.x#Unitary_Project>


I recently started musing on the fact that as the 3.0.0 to 3.0.1 is a very
short time period, the important information
in the What's New in 3.0.0 about updating to UP would be lost to future
readers.  I also realized that all the updates
from 2.x to 3.x could well take several years (over a decade even possibly_

So I carved this new page out of the What's New in 3.0.0 *(page history is
a powerful tool)*

a) I placed a link to it from a small new section in the 3.0.1 What's New:
https://alphamanual.audacityteam.org/man/New_features_in_this_release#aup

b) then I thought some more and also placed a link to it from the front
page:
https://alphamanual.audacityteam.org/man/Main_Page
In the Installing and updating section - as I realized that some folk will
still be
upgrading to UP from 2.x for many years to come - so for them this will
still be
relevant.

c) I though further and added links on  these three pages:
https://alphamanual.audacityteam.org/man/Installing_and_updating_Audacity_on_Windows
https://alphamanual.audacityteam.org/man/Installing_and_updating_Audacity_on_Mac_OS_X
https://alphamanual.audacityteam.org/man/Installing_and_updating_Audacity_on_Linux

d) Which in its turn led me to some serious polishing on those pages.
It always amazes me that when I turn my attention focus to pages that
haven't been
edited for a while I usually find that most of those can be seriously
improved with a
bit of polish.  None of them are really bad before - they can just be
shined-up nicely.
