Hi :) I thought it was on the wiki too. I haven't explored much. Ch1 seems to be a merging and of the current CH1&2 into a more logical order? I think the Math chapter has been absorbed into other chapters. Base and Macros removed. But there is a lot more in the detail so i think it's better if i have a closer look later before discussing it in the list.
I liked the flow of the proposed Ch1 Regards from Tom :) ________________________________ From: Jean Hollis Weber <[email protected]> To: [email protected] Sent: Sat, 13 August, 2011 22:24:23 Subject: Re: [libreoffice-documentation] GS Macro Chapter New Version Ready but....

Yes, a link to Andrew's book should definitely be added. It was in the OOo GS book (in Chapter 1, where other sources of info are listed under "How to Get Help"), but apparently it was removed at some point from the LibO GS chapter before publication. As for whether to retain the Macros chapter in GS, most people who spoke up said they wanted it kept there, so I guess we're keeping it. > I still haven't looked at the re-organising that Jean has suggested but i > suspect that the re-organising would be a good thing to do.

I'll add it to the wiki when I have time, but meanwhile you can read the OOo version here (I had made the same proposal to both groups): http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Documentation/Dashboard/Proposal_Revise_Getting_Started --Jean -- Unsubscribe instructions: E-mail to [email protected] Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/documentation/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted -- Unsubscribe instructions: E-mail to [email protected] Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/documentation/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted
