I am not clear what the lazy consensus is about. Clearly, there is no restriction on anyone contributing to User Guides for Apache OpenOffice on ODFAUthors, beyond the terms/conventions/what-ever that apply to contributions there.
So I suppose what is being asked for is consensus that there will not, at this time, be any separate effort inside of the Apache OpenOffice project and the project will look to relying on the ODFAuthors site for emergence of updated User Guides. Contributions should be made there. In other words, there won't be any forking of ODFAuthors work into the project. I assume that means avoidance of duplicate effort as well. I'm aligned with that direction. - Dennis -----Original Message----- From: Keith N.

At this point I would like to ask for lazy consensus to use ODFAuthors site and the 3.4 documents already there to create and publish updated documentation. I will leave this open until 2012-09-26 at 05:45 UTC. Regards Keith N. McKenna
