Other than being over-committed on my time, it is difficult to stay

spend time (no idea how much) to figure out the current way to embed
images and captions, and the preferred display format, etc.
People writing new chapters or updating the *content* of existing
chapters to OOo 3.0 should not be too concerned with the details of
layout and presentation. Someone (me, Michele, Gary) familiar with the
details of the 3.0 template can deal with that, if necessary.
I always feel bad when I do that :-)
While looking at the Calc files, I am left guessing as to exactly
what needs to be done. It would be nice if we had a workflow engine
of some sort (or even something as simple as bugzilla) so that I
could login and search to see a list of what speciically needs to be
done. Even todo.txt would help.
Agreed. Unfortunately, my experience is that these things are rarely
kept up to date, even when someone sets them up, so you still can't be
sure what state things are really at. (Several of us have made stabs
at maintaining to-do lists over the years, always with the same result.)
The Calc Guide outline is one attempt to at least summarise the status
of chapters and what's needed. I've updated it and put it into a new
file so it can be read on the website:

Oh... I did not know that this list existed (I should blush now).
I thought that both chapters 12 and 13 were up-to-date.
The list mentions coverage of "customizing menus & toolbars". Are there
any Calc specific things? I expected that generic coverage would have
been sufficient.
Wife is calling...
