I think the right list may be d...@api.openoffice.org, becasue there you will 
find 
ore API/OOo Basic users than here, and they can give you feed back.

Good idea.

Already present in 
http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Documentation/BASIC_Guide/Other_Functions_(Runtime_Library)#Wait

IIRC there are some other things missing or that need to be improved, and 
others may be broken or are issues (that's way d...@api.openoffice.org is a 
better place to ask for advice); for 
example:

* in 
http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Documentation/BASIC_Guide/Loops#For_Each

** the variable holding the value of each element in the loop is not declared, 
this will give an error when Option Explicit is used on the module
** the whole example does not work (at least on DEV300_m38), is the example 
wrong or is this an application issue? 


* explanation about how to declare new types is AFAIK missing (I couldn't even 
find it in the office Help):

Type aMenuItem
        aCommand as String
        aText as String
End Type
        
Sub Main
        Dim maItem as New aMenuItem
        With maItem
                .aCommand = ".uno:Copy"
                .aText = "~Copy"
        End With
        
        MsgBox  "Command: " & maItem.aCommand & Chr(13) &_
                        "Text: " & maItem.aText
End Sub

I guess there are other things I can recall now.
