Hello team,
Here is the translation of the 'User Guide' document [1] from ODT to AsciiDoc.
It can be referred at
https://github.com/apache/roller/blob/master/docs/roller-user-guide.adoc

This includes the screenshot of our *new* design and theme for Roller UI :)

With this translation, all our ODT documents are converted to AsciiDoc.

Here is the ticket, we used for this translation,
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ROL-2151
If you found any issue or improvement in this translation, please feel
free to report at ROL-2151.

Thanks so much, everyone for your support on this.

Best regards,
Swapnil M Mane,
www.apache.org
