Hi again :) Of course it would be ideal if Jean could produce a document on how to use the alternative system but i think that is one people from OOo are already familiar with? It would still be good for new people to be able to compare systems. Regards from Tom :)

And in light of the subject matter of this link http://arstechnica.com/open-source/news/2011/04/oracle-gives-up-on-ooo-after-community-forks-the-project.ars?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=rss I wonder in which direction the community will go. Personally I joined LibreOffice because I felt it necessary to promote a competitive free and open source office suite. I thought the only way I could be of service was to join the Documenters. Once I realized that's not just writing I've tried to work into a coordinating position while I learn more about the craft. Since I've begun with LibreOffice, there seems to be a split between the n00bs who joined on with LibreOffice and the old-schoolers who have been up and down since StarOffice, and what is the best way to work toward LibreOffice documentation. I just want to see one big happy family working in a coordinated way. In light of the recent developments at Oracle, and the perhaps timely personal disaster we have experienced with our Alfresco workflow being reset, I wonder in which direction the community will go. Is Jean Hollis Weber willing/able to modify her accepted plone setup to not rely so much on OpenOffice.org workflow and getting started documentation? Is David Nelson going to re-emerge as the driving force behind Alfresco? Is there going to be some consensus reached as to what is the real and proper way to document LibreOffice? I wonder in which direction the community will go. If a leader emerges, I will follow. If one doesn't emerge... we need a leader. tl;dr Wat Do? -- jdc -- Unsubscribe instructions: E-mail to documentation+h...@libreoffice.org Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/www/documentation/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted -- Unsubscribe instructions: E-mail to documentation+h...@libreoffice.org Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/www/documentation/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted
