Re: [libreoffice-documentation] WG4.2 Ch16 now published

Hi :) This is amazing. Since you sent out the call-to-arms it's suddenly moving very swiftly. Only 4 chapters left and at least 1 of those is being worked on, possibly 2. Good work! Regards from Tom :) On 23 September 2014 22:11, Jean Weber jeanwe...@gmail.com wrote: I tweaked a few items,

Re: [libreoffice-documentation] Base Handbook Preface updated

Hi :) My impression is that there is an ideal way; 1. write, edit and make additions 2. review for technical accuracy 3. proof-read for grammar and maybe de-geekifying a bit more but that steps 2 and 3 can sometimes be switched around in the interests of expediency. When Jean, Hazel, Peter

Re: [libreoffice-documentation] Five chapters of Writer 4.2 Guide awaiting review

Hi :) Superb! Good work :)) On page 8 the 2nd bullet-point has sub-points that start on the subsequent page. The bottom of page 9 has a little space so it might be nice to push the last bullet-point on page 8 down a line or so until it's forced to the top of page 9. That sort of thing is more

Re: [libreoffice-documentation] Base Document - Forms

Hi :) Peter Goggin's email seems to have been broken shortly after posting his first message in this thread. I don't think we have any other way of contacting him. I think the established policy, at least for screen-shots, is to install the version of LIbreOffice from the official LibreOffice

Re: [libreoffice-documentation] Request for ODFAuthor Account

Hi :) On other mailing-lists and other teams Joel is a total star on about the scale of Jean and a few others here. One of his specialities is figuring out how things work and trouble-shooting technical problems. I think it would be great if his privileges on ODFAuthors could be escalated so

Re: [libreoffice-documentation] Re: WG4.2 Ch16, review/editing done

Hi :) Wow!! That was really fast! I am sure other people can figure out what has happened and fix it. You are not the first person to have had teething troubles when first joining this part of any project. Luckily there are people here who have experience with ODFASuthors and can probably find

at the guidance on the link and I'm not sure that's how things happen. In any case I'll take a stab at reviewing one chapter. Hopefully the work will meet requirements. -Alan On Thu, Sep 18, 2014 at 9:34 AM, Tom Davies tomc...@gmail.com wrote: Hi :) Are you new

Hi :) All the way at the bottom of that page https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Documentation/Development/UserGuideTasks#Base_Handbook It looks like the Base Handbook has plenty of chapters ready to review. For example chapter 4 about Forms is ready to review. Gary Collins expressed interest in

[libreoffice-documentation] ODFAuthors login

Hi Peter G :) Hopefully someone will register you at ODFAuthors soon. They hopefully send you the login details such as username and password privately. You might be able to change the password to make it something that hasn't been sent over the internet by email (not a hugely high risk for

[libreoffice-documentation] Recent request/advert on Users Mailing List

Hi :) Just after Jean put out the email requesting people to proof-read the Writer Guide i sent a new email to the Users Mailing List pleading for new people to join the Documentation Team. I've done the same things many times before but this time seemed to get a lot more results than usual.
