Hello team!
It's been a year since the second edition of the Getting Started guide was published, so I'm doing a quick&dirty update.

I'll put the chapters on the Review List as I update them. I would be grateful for anyone to check them to see what I forgot or goofed up. If you know of things needing to be added or changed to chapters I haven't got to yet, please feel free to tell me now and/or edit the relevant files yourself.

I want to have this book up to date for OOo 2.2 before publication, so if you have the release candidate, that would be great. Otherwise, 2.1 should be fine for checking, because 2.2 is supposed to be bug fixes, not new features.

This is not the time for major rewrites, but of course if you find unclear sentences, grammatical errors, or inconsistencies, do correct them.

Note especially to US Americans: most of this book is written using international (aka "British") English spelling and punctuation conventions, with the exception of "color", "dialog" and "program".

Thank you.
--Jean
