Hello,
Hello,
My name is Wayne Franz and I'm new to the mailing list.
Currently, I am a Computer Science student the University of
Manitoba up in
Canada.
This term, a group of students from my department have been in
conversation with Jean regarding a project for a technical writing
course we are taking. Our
goal is to produce a number of tutorial/how-to style documents
targeted toward university students and the tasks that they perform
on a regular
basis (as they pertain to OpenOffice.org). We have enlisted the
help of a 3rd
year technical writing class (about 20 writers) to assist with this
task.
Why don't you contact the OpenOffice.org Education Project ? What
you describe is exactly one of the goals of this project.
Please have a look at : http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/
Education_Project
We do provide :
- classrooms online (will update soon, exactly when my overload at
work will decrease, say in two or three weeks)
- help online, mostly on the #education.openoffice.org
We would like to express an interest in donating our final product
to OpenOffice.org under the Public Document License. We recognize
that you
have an editing process that such work would typically go through,
and also that (considering the range of excellent documentation
that you already have)
you may or may not find our work useful.
I forgot : there is a mailing list : [email protected].
Please subscribe and propose. I'm sure you'll find a good echo over
there :)
So, we came up with the idea of posting our work to a simple
website hosted on our campus servers. The OpenOffice.org
documentation community could feel
free to take a look to see what we have. If you like it, we could
pass the documents along to you, or provide you with a link to our
site that you could
post as a resource. If not, it would still be up on the web as a
resource for our University community.
With this in mind, we had two quick questions:
1) Do you see any issues with us using the OpenOffice document
template for the
documents that we post to our site (any work we post would be under
the PDF
lisence)?
2) If you were interested in our work, does the idea we have
proposed (regarding providing with you a link to our site that you
could post)
sound like a good idea, or would you rather that we submit the
documents to you? We both videos and documents.
We would welcome any feedback (good, bad or otherwise) that you
might have.
Well, I'm just wondering why noboby told you about the OpenOffice.org
Edcuation Project, because this is really it's goal.
Regards,
Eric Bachard
