Thank you for all the copyediting there! From here, where do I proceed in the
workflow of this document? For example, I notice that the bulleted and
numbered list example that I had provided has not maintained its formatting
in the copyedited version?
I think that I should merge in your changes, set up the bullet list example
(not sure what went wrong there) and then follow these instructions:
http://oooauthors.org/en/authors/userguide2/resources/howto_update
Is that correct?
Thanks once again for the corrections.

Just accept or reject all or any of the edits before writing your next
draft. But use the new file for its new style definitions instead of the
original file. [Eventually (probably when hell freezes over), I'll put
together a new template for general OOoAuthors use.] Open the copyedited
file and do a Save as to create a new file right away. Rename the file
with a new date.
You can experiment with appropriate paragraph styles for the numbered
list your file is based upon. You may have to set the style parameters
to something you like until a new template is available with better
styles. Our current list styles are based on manual overrides done via
the toolbar (I suspect) instead of using appropriate list and paragraph
styles.
Just create your own either manually or use your own styles for now.
There have been essentially only two editors who have done the final
editing the past two years, and we just did some things that aren't
formally documented--but work OK, mostly.
