The "Writers Needed" section may need some updating, for example to change the focus to writing for OOo3.0 (other changes may also be needed). Gary just made some good suggestions, and there probably are other new features that need to be documented. I suspect that most of the missing chapters of our books (esp. the Calc Guide) may be a bit advanced for most TC students, but we have talked on several occasions about developing more tutorial and how-to information to complement what little is available on the OOo Documentation wiki... so that's another possibility. I am really glad to hear that your "drum-banging" seems to be having an effect. That's really great news. --Jean
