Hi all, just a comment from a (very occasional) lurker...

Though not feeling a team member of any of the teams at present (due to lack of time) I just want to give my "+1" for an effort trying to find a good/better solution for producing reusable documentation. My own (theoretical) thought is: In an ideal world, there should exist a hierachical framework with a "content master" from which any of the derivates (brands, flavours, translations etc.) can be produced by a given set of rules. But I'm not an expert on how to best implement such a solution (maybe DocBook or even better DITA? What about Drupal? Wiki?). As most documentation products use a different licensing model, the Documentation Project can develop rather independantly from the different software products. And yes, in my eyes, it should go it's own way if possible, as I personally do not see much advantage in fragmentation here. In contrary, setting up such a hierarchical document framework could be a rather challenging task on its own :-) Nino -- ----------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe send email to authors-unsubscr...@documentation.openoffice.org For additional commands send email to sy...@documentation.openoffice.org with Subject: help
