Perhaps. But where is your contribution, any contribution? You have not
made one to documentation except on ooauthors.
Letś get a little history. Daniel found working with the documentation
project too difficult so he proposed an off-site way, oooauthors, that
would make production of documentation easier and that this project
would feed the main documentation project. He also promised that this
would result in a user guide. Well we actually got a user guide but only
after the doc project published one. So much for that.
THere was also a promise of a printed guide. Again this has not occurred
via oooauthors; however, the documentation project has this in place and
further proceeds from the sale of this guide go directly to
OpenOffice.org.
SO if you want to complain about progress or lack thereof at the doc
project or any of the NL projects, get involved with OpenOffice.org and
not a third party project that seems bent on undermining on-going
efforts.
It is fantastic that the documentation project has done these things,
but is part of the documentation project's objective to bring down
OOoAuthors?
Nothing in what Jonathon wrote warranted this response. (Not that his
post was necessary either mind you, but that seems to be a personal
issue between you too.) It is mean-spirited and divisive. What did you
possible hope to accomplish from this post other than to start a fight.
Why can't you just be happy that there are two groups working hard to
produce free documentation? This should be something that pleases you,
now makes you angry and bitter.
You have a wealth of knowledge that is beneficial to OOo and you have
done a lot of work and have a position of leadership. I just would have
thought you would be striving to bring the community together rather
than pushing it apart as your last post did.
Have a good day,
