Do you have a link to the forum post? I can try turning it into a blog post. > BTW, someone needs to review the last article about Bézier curves on Draw > > http://wiki.openoffice.org/wiki/Documentation/UserGuide/Draw/Tools/Bezier > > I'm quite sure that it displays the worst English of which I'm capable ;) > It is not clear to me what the workflow is with the editing. For example: 1) How do I know what pages need editing? How do I know whether someone else has already started editing a page? 2) Do pages need technical review (verifying steps, etc.) as well as editing? If so, in what order? Maybe this already exists, and it already exists, but it might help to have a series of page tags for things like: 1) This page is being drafted by XXX and is not ready for review yet 2) This page has been drafted and is ready for editing 3) This page is currently being edited by XXX 4) This page is done editing and is ready for technical review 5) This page is being reviewed by XXX for technical contents 6) This page is ready for final review/approval 7) This page is approved for publication Or is this overkill? But I think there is the very practical question: if we have more volunteers how do we coordinate so we're not duplicating effort? -Rob > Regards > Ricardo > > > > >> >> Regards >> Ricardo >> >> >> >>> >>> What do you think? >>> >>> Regards >>> Ricardo >>> >> >>
