The main focus will be online help but we think it makes
sense to talk about other areas of collaboration, too.

I think this is great. In fact I think there are documentation members
willing and able to get involved. In fact I recognized this some weeks
ago and contacted [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the following message:
Here is the session description for the proposal:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
This session will deal with multiple aspects of the OOo help system, and
documentation in general. It will encompass technological aspects, such
as an overview of OOo help system, information on how to write, modify,
and build help, how to localize or extend help. Common pitfalls when
working with the help sources will also be addressed. Further discussion
will focus on community collaboration aspects where the relation between
the Sun-based help authors and the documentation community will be
discussed with the goal of highlighting existing and potential
collaboration paths and tools. Finally, we will try to collect ideas
about the future of OOo documentation and help, such as consolidation of
documentation formats and the feasibility of alternative delivery vehicles.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Let me know if you want something else covered (probably already
is stuff for three sessions) - we'd like to attract as many
as possible.
Thanks
Frank
