Here are more chapters that need replacement maintainers. Some are
currently listed under my name (often because I took them on when
someone else is not available to continue in the role). Some have names
of people who haven't been heard from in ages. If any of these are
"your" chapters, and you want to continue in the role of maintainer,
that is super! Just let us know.

I'm willing to take on the role of maintainer of a couple of chapters
for which I feel reasonably comfortable with the subject matter. The
ones that fall into that category are:
Getting Started Guide:
Ch 7 -- Getting Started with Calc
Ch 12 -- Working with Templates
Writer Guide:
Ch 10 -- Working with Templates
Ch 11 -- Mail Merge
I believe that all of the above chapters are in reasonably good shape,
which helped me make the decision to volunteer as maintainer. Let me
know if this isn't correct; I won't withdraw my my offer to be
maintainer, but I'll want to know if any are in need of immediate attention.
Also, one side question. Do we have anything written up on how to do
footnotes and endnotes? I couldn't immediately find anything. A
co-worker was working on a paper he was submitting to a medical journal,
and he was having a heck of a time getting endnotes to come out like the
journal required. (To complicate things, he had originally done them as
footnotes, not as endnotes.) I got involved and got things straightened
out eventually, but it was definitely a case of me doing a lot of trial
and error to get things to work. If this subject is covered, I just
plain missed it. If it's not, them maybe we should try to include it,
either as a stand-alone chapter, or with some other chapter. Let me know
what you think.
