Both the Getting Started and Writer guides are available for review,
but as Jean stated it would be good to get the GSG out as early as
possible.

Yes please. There has been a rather major change between 2.x and 3.x
and in particular, if you save a document produced with v3 with an
earlier version all the lists (numbered and bullet) will be
compromised.

And finally an observation: when replying to messages on this mailing
list, people tend to either write their own text in the middle of the
original mail (interspersed posting -see above) or just write the
reply below the original email (bottom posting). Another thing that
some people do (I often forget) is to remove the parts of the original
message that are not essential to understand the reply. This is all
explained here:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Posting_style

Bottom or interspersed posting are not by any means a rule, but since
everybody seems to be using it, if you don't find it too inconvenient
it would be nice if you could also adapt to this.
The risk is to have emails in a confusing order such as in this
example of a thread with 4 messages:

3rd message from Barbara

1st message from Jean

2nd message from Gary

4th message from Sak


Cheers,

Michele
