As we wait, patiently, for the new doc list to be created, it might be worth having a quick discussion about priorities. I know there has been talk about "getting started" guides, perhaps done on the wiki. Another idea I had was a very targeted version of that, thinking specifically of Microsoft Office users migrating to OpenOffice. Would it be worth having a small guide just for them, say the "top 10" helpful hints for MS Office users, things they might find confusing at first. For example: 1) In Calc, the argument separator is a semi-colon, not a comma. 2) In Calc, toggling absolute address mode is done by a shift-F4, not an F4 OK. Maybe we end up more with 40 or 50 things like this. Would this be useful and worth trying? -Rob
I realize I am a bit late in reviewing this thread. However, here's a site I came across:
http://www.linuxtopia.org/online_books/office_guides/microsoft_office_to_openoffice_migration/index.html -- and a specific example http://www.linuxtopia.org/online_books/office_guides/microsoft_office_to_openoffice_migration/openoffice_migration_Keyboard_shortcuts_0606MG-DifferencesInUseCalcExcel.html info is for OO.o 3.2. See licensing details. Maybe we can use it. -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------ MzK "No act of kindness, no matter how small, is ever wasted." -- Aesop
