John McCreesh (Marketing Lead) notes on his blog that the latest schedule for the release of OOo3 has RC3 due on 30 September and final release on 7 October.
I intend to have all the individual chapters of the Getting Started guide available to the public through the Documentation website by the release date, although I will probably not have a full book with index compiled by then. Numerous chapters will still need thorough editing, but that can happen when Gary (or someone else) has time. We're always tidying up the rough edges of our chapters, and I see no reason to delay availability because of those rough edges. The accuracy of content is the first priority at this time, so I'll keep working my way through the reviews that have already been done, and eagerly awaiting reviews of the other chapters. Also checking some things that I've spotted myself! Michele, how are you going on Chapter 5 (GS with Calc) and Appendix B? --Jean
