Hi :)
Is the 3.6.x usable enough to completely skip all the remaining 3.5.x
guides and go straight to the 3.6.x guides instead?

My dos centavos...
Due to the very small number of writers available, LO should always
rewrite its current material at the beta version level, at least.
Better yet, write for the pre-release alpha stage and update the
chapters accordingly, as needed.
Otherwise, when the LO docs project attempts to complete an
incremental edition, it will likely keep remaining an incremental
version or three behind--and possibly contain deprecated or even
worse, obsolete, material in addition to being untimely.

I forgot to add...
The writings should be done much like the technical editing and
rewriting we performed for Motorla/Freescale Semiconductor: using
conditional text for the various material that differs. After a
reasonable amount of time, the obsolete or deprecated material can be
permanently deleted.
