I think this raises a philosophical question though, how much redundancy should there be. Like I went into a very long description of the picture and draw toolbars in the calc graphics guide. However, those toolbars function EXACTLY the same in every other component, so should that explanation be copied to all of the guides since it is the same info? To someone that is going to print this stuff out, that seems like a waste of paper.
I am for high redundancy. In general, I think it is more user-friendly to have a certain amount of information repeated in each book, so people don't have to refer to a chapter in a different book to find something out. (Referring people to a whole other book is a different matter.) Of course, which bits of info to repeat (and at what level of detail) is indeed the question!
I don't have time right now to write as much as I'd like on this topic. < Pause while everyone sighs with relief :-) >
It would be good to hear from Janet on this too.
