[libreoffice-documentation] Ubuntu Community Documentation
Hello, I recently joined the LibreOffice Documentation group. I was about to send out an email asking the where I should start when I had an idea. I am running the current (10.10) version of Ubuntu and involved with the community documentation. With the next release (11.04) LibreOffice will be the default office suite. The Ubuntu Community Currently has not documentation on LibreOffice. I propose that I take the documents in Alfresco and convert them into the Ubuntu Community Documentation.

Re: [libreoffice-documentation] Ubuntu Community Documentation
Hi Johnny, :-) Well that could be one approach. But the documentation we have is still very much a work in progress. We'd be continuing to work on it, and you'd have an out-of-date copy. It would be particularly sad since we are about to re-do *all* the screenshots in the docs. They're currently mostly taken under Windows. The plan is to re-take all the screenshots under Ubuntu 10.10. And that's just one of the tasks scheduled. We'd love to keep you with us, Johnny. It seems like a sad duplication of effort for you to be documenting LibreOffice over there while we're doing the same thing over here. :-D When you wrote to me asking me where to start, I mentioned that the best thing would be to write to Hal and Barbara on the list, because they are the people with the closest view of the work right now. Me, I've been busy dealing with Alfresco, plus I've also had client work to do that has meant that I've not actually been doing any documenting recently. To make up for that, I had volunteered to re-take all those screenshots. But, for instance, this could be one task you could help out with, Johnny. Hal, Barbara, can you guys organize Johnny and me and point us both at some work, given that you know best where we are with things right now? By the way, we already have a couple of meta tasks we need to get done: 1) We need to finalize a LibreOffice versioning system to maintain in the meta info of each file we work on. 2) We need to finalize the chapter template.

The last thing I want to do is cause problems or duplicate work. I had a thought and if that is not the best use of my time, fine. I want to help you guys where you need me.

Re: [libreoffice-documentation] Ubuntu Community Documentation
Hi Johnny, :-) In any case, it's great that you're an Ubuntu user. Me, too. We can perfectly well divide the screenshooting (screenshotting?) between us. For the desktop theme, I'd go with the default Ubuntu theme. The tool I'd use, unless you have a better suggestion, would be gnome-screenshot. In LibreOffice Options General Open/Save dialogs, we should activate Use LibreOffice dialogs. Let's wait for Hal, Barbara and whoever else to post back and then figure out a work specification all together (what's needed, sizes, etc.) . I'll be free to work on this Saturday or Sunday.

Re: [libreoffice-documentation] Ubuntu Community Documentation
Hi :) I think Ubuntu's Community Documentation tries to do too much sometimes.External links are a good idea but it can be tricky trying to find something suitably reliable to link to. Hopefully most distros will be able to just link directly to our documentation here.
