 Hi :)
 You can get completed chapters in advance from
 https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Documentation/Publications

 Errr, that page also has old archived versions.  Normally the guides 
 wouldn't have come out until around the 4.0.4 so to see the Getting Started 
 Guide is almost complete already is quite amazing!

There is a way to get them quicker. You could join the docs team and 
help complete the chapters that you are interested in. That way, you 
know that they will come out quicker and the chapters that you want 
completed  are the ones that you care about. I don't think you will hear 
anyone complaining about you wanting to work only on the chapters that 
you want to work on.

Join up and help! Who knows, you may have so much fun that you will want 
to help finish another chapter that some other user hopes to have come 
out soon too! :-)

Cheers,

Marc

Thank you Marc for the invitation, but I just started using LO 3.6.4 a
few months ago, and LO 4.0.0 a week or so ago, so I really don't know
much about how it works.  I'm definitely at the start of the learning
curve.   I can't imagine I would be of much help, except by making
donations, which I have already done a couple of times.  

Until I learn more, I believe that is how I can be most helpful.

Hi :)
Actually the Docs Team always needs new people that don't already know how to 
do much in order to help proof-read chapters and make sure they make sense to 
newcomers.  Unfortunately every time someone does join they quickly become 
quite adept with LibreOffice once they have worked so thoroughly through just a 
few chapters.  

That's not to say you should join but just to let people here know they don't 
need to be shy about lacking knowledge because even that can be a useful asset. 
 For this particular thread the most important bit was the link to the wiki imo.
Good luck and regards from
Tom :)
