I am sorry - I promised the LibO online help (WikiHelp) already the last
week, but it haven't happened; it needed more work than anticipated :-(

Hi,
I was interested to hear yesterday that there were discussions about
abandoning XHP as the file format for the help files, and use plain HTML
instead.
I am (so far) convinced that the actual format is not the real problem

I've recently proposed some help cleanups on the documentation@ ML, and

Documentation teams, but they should know :-)
The idea is to get rid of

Hi,
This is one more from the 'cleaning up XHP files' series...
At the moment, the "xml-lang" attribute in the markup in the
XHP files is mandatory. But I see no reason for that, it is always just
"en-US", the different locales make sense only for extensions, so I have

Hi,
As discussed in the other mails, 'l10n' is another attribute I'd like to
remove from the help files.
It is unused in the code, and the documentation says: "Contains the
localization status of the old help files and is only used for migration
purposes." - which has happened years and years
