Looks very nice. "you guys" did a great job assembling the documents.
I did not see any outright errors, but, I did see a few things that
should be considered for change:
(1)
The following link is in the text:
http://user.services.openoffice.org/en/forum/
This resolves to: http://forum.openoffice.org/en/forum/
I had already fixed this in the Macro section, but I had not looked at
any other sections before today.
(2) Note to self..... should probably add the LibreOffice forum to Table
6; I would have done it, but I did not even know it existed until recently.
(3) I would probably add a space after the quote on page 376, but that
might just be me (currently there is no space).

It is now time for final checking of the book, looking for glaring
errors, by which I mean things like this:
* Missing figures (blank spaces where figures should be)
* Missing x-refs (message similar to "Error: reference not found")
* Wrong figure x-refs (pointing to the wrong figure) -- the most common problem
* Bad page breaks (for example, big gaps at bottom of a page)
Please send a note to this list, or directly to me, if you spot anything.
You are also welcome to suggest improvements etc, but they will be put
on the list for a later edition of the book, not incorporated into this one.
This is a good job for anyone, including total newcomers to the
project. You don't need to know anything about the program or have
good English skills; all you need is to be able to pay attention and
notice things like those listed above.
More than one person can check the file at the same time. People see
different things. Or you can start at the last chapter and work
forward, or in the middle... anything to get all chapters looked at by
someone in addition to me.
Thanks in advance!
I will also incorporate any corrections to factual errors that anyone
finds in the chapter files.
