Hello Zoltan,
Thank you for your info. I have just started reading chapter 1 - Introducing 
Base.As I am new to this document, I found the following:
1) unclear terminology used -  for example: database programs2) unclear 
statement - for example:
With
the right program called a driver, Base can access databases like
these as well as others.3) terms used that have not been introduced or 
explained, an example is:Base
uses the HSQLDB 1.8
database engine to create and later update ODF 1.2 database frontend
documents. 
Listed above are just a few but not limited areas that I picked up as I was 
reading.If we assume our target audience has no knowledge of database, then we 
have to communicate in clear, plain and well structured text. In this occasion, 
the document seemed to have fallen short of that goal.
