... some elements of what we do are of interest to the wider
community. For instance at the Moodle conference in Jan this year, I
chatted with Martin Dougiamas, creator of Moodle. The thing he was
most interested in, was OOoAuthors and how it went about generating
such good documentation.
Something they struggle a little with .
In fact he may read this and chime in, I seem to remember him saying
he was subscribed to this list.
Hmmm... are you suggesting then that a session on something to do with
OOo or even OOoAuthors would be a good topic to propose to the main
LCA conference? That's an idea that hadn't occurred to me, but the
more I think about it the better I like it. :-)
Cheers, Jean
Certainly it seems that many FLOSS projects suffer from the "docs
written by developers" syndrome. IIRC that was a comment that Martin
made with regard to Moodle in the early days. OOo Authors seems to be
able to get around that and deliver high quality documentation for
endusers. I think that it would be a useful paper to be delivered at
the main conf.
