Hi! OK, I have downloaded the document now and started looking at it. If not anyone says he/she already is working on it then I start the more "serious" work. I am planning to work from the current template and when the template has been updated, update the document accordingly.
A question regarding the Chapter template: The template-howto says that to one shall install the template in the the folder <OOoInstall>\user\template. This may be interpreted as "copy the template file to the folder <OOoInstall>\user\tempate". That was what I thought when I read that for the first time. But I think the meaning is "File > Template > Organize" and from there import the template from there?. Maybe I am wrong, but I need clarification. When later updating the Chapter template do I just copy the file to a certain folder (like the template-howto says) or do I make an import from the Template Organizer? A couple of questions regarding the document itself: 1) The placeholders in the template: Do I replace them with regular text or do I fill in values in fields somewhere (now I am showing my lack of knowledge of fields :-) )? 2) Initial Writer of the Original Documentation: Shall this be Vincenzo (author of the original V1.1 version) or shall it be me (as migrator to the V2.0 version (if not anyone else is doing that of course)). I want to setup it correctly. More tips I am not aware of (yet)?

You can find it in the user guide 1 folder, Writer Guide section: http://oooauthors.org/en/authors/userguide1/writerguide/ General instructions for migrating a document are here: http://oooauthors.org/en/authors/userguide2-pdl/contributing#migrate After you read those, and take a look at the chapter, you may still have questions (because every chapter is different). Just ask here. :-) Thank you for your work! Cheers, -- Daniel Carrera | I don't want it perfect, Join OOoAuthors today! | I want it Tuesday. http://oooauthors.org |
