These are all good points although most of them are more related to
the contents than to the style of the help. I will try to include
your comments into the help style guide as far as it is possible.
True, but they are all sorely missed from the current help.
It would be great if at least the style guide provided slots for all
these information items, and even if it were still missing, allowed
people to easily see what was missing and even possible contribute the
missing information somehow.
I will add a checklist for completeness of a function description at the
end of the style guide.
Martina:
Is there a plan to coordinate the Calc help with the upcoming changes
for ODFF compatibility (OOo 3.0, [1])? Since the ODFF standard already
documents much of the same functionality, perhaps there is some way to
share some of the load.
I am sure that the OpenFormula standard will have an impact on the
application help although I do not know yet to what extent. May be that
we will even need to describe some new functions. And then, at the
latest, we should have the new style guide ready.
Martina
At the very least, new Calc documentation should be targeted to the
ODFF standard, as that's where Calc is headed.
