If you have an idea about documentation, please reply to this email. We
are open to anything.
Here are some that has been toyed around with:
* Using the Wiki for How Tos
* Setting up the Wiki for Todo Items
Looking forward to hearing from you.
For everyone's information: I am in the process of putting all
the OOoAuthors guides on the wiki. The text of three books
(Writer, Impress, Getting Started) is already there, and I am
adding the figures and cleaning up the formatting as I have time.
I used Writer2MediaWiki to convert from ODT to Mediawiki, but the
formatting went a bit odd (due to the macro's interpretation of
the formatting in the ODT files). Help with the cleanup would be
very welcome!
I'll put up the Migration Guide and the existing chapters of the
Calc Guide soon. The Draw Guide has been revised by the German
team and is being translated back into English; when that is
done, I will add the Draw Guide to the collection.
The wiki is a good place to put How Tos as well as the FAQs
(which still need consolidation and updating). For How Tos, there
will be a lot of overlap between them and procedural info that is
already in the OOoAuthors guides, so we need to decide how best
to handle this so that we reuse as much material as possible.
This page:
http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/User_Manuals
needs to be revised to make it more suitable for users seeking
information, possibly by making separate pages for contributors
and for users. I've been thinking about the best approach but
haven't come to a conclusion yet... and perhaps someone else will
have a good idea.
