Hello,
From: Patricia Shanahan [mailto:p...@acm.org]
I'm sure our documentation needs work, and there is someone with
writing, editing, and copyediting skills hoping to help. The
doc@ list
seems to be dead, except for one message posted this year.
What would be the best way to get started on improving our website or
documentation?
I think the easiest way is to use the wiki and coordinate the work. Start here:
https://wiki.openoffice.org/wiki/Documentation
Previously, much was coordinated by odf-autors:
http://www.odfauthors.org/
At the moment, I do not know how to create an account in the Wiki, _maybe
someone else can help_?
Editing the web pages is done with cms, you have to have an account, which you
get when you are committer:
The German language documentation is _actively_ maintained by the team of the
ProOO-Box, see:
http://prooo-box.org/live/seiten/dokumentation.html
(see also the site: https://www.openoffice.org/de/doc/index.html but the
documents there are not up-to-date)
Maybe one place to start on the English documentation would be to pick
up German changes, machine translate, and then polish the result, if the
licensing permits?
Perhaps one can say more precisely, documentation is not my particular
workspace.
I think the real problem is that currently documentation is not in
anybody's workspace. We have at least one volunteer who is interested,
but needs help getting started.
