The work you have already done here is really great. Having your support from the begining was also very important for us so thank you for all this. I hope we will keep the work in the shape and the quality you've designed.

[tdf-discuss] Draft user guide chapters on wiki
Apologies for posting to two lists, but I think this is of general interest. I have placed copies of some draft chapters of a Getting Started guide and a Writer Guide for LibreOffice (in .ODT format) on the wiki, http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Documentation These chapters are ported from the same chapters for OOo3.3, so they may contain incorrect information or screen captures for LibreOffice. Volunteers are needed to check and update these chapters before publication. Contributors are encouraged to work on these chapters through the OOoAuthors website, http://www.oooauthors.org/english/libreoffice3/ where you will need a login and "author" access. If individuals or a group wish to work in other ways, go ahead. I intend to continue making chapters available for LibO as we update them for OOo, but otherwise I do not have time to be involved in organising or coordinating the work on LibO documentation. I have moved the Task List and Wish List to another page, http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Documentation/Produce and updated the main page of the wiki. I am remaining in my position as Co-Lead of Documentation at OOo and will be concentrating my efforts on OOo docs. That is already more than I can keep up with, so despite my interest in LibO, at this time I will not be continuing active work for/with the group. Of course, I could change my mind at any time! If so, I'll let you know. --Jean -- E-mail to discuss+h...@documentfoundation.org for instructions on how to unsubscribe List archives are available at http://www.documentfoundation.org/lists/discuss/ All messages you send to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted
