Hello people,

as you may all know, OpenOffice.org's Help system is going to be extended to support extension's help:

http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Extensible_Help
http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Extensible_Help_Project_Plan
http://specs.openoffice.org/appwide/help/ExtensibleHelp.odt

As extension developer I wanted to start studying how to write help files, so I started downloading:

http://documentation.openoffice.org/online_help/OOo2HelpAuthoring.pdf.


My first beginner-questions:

* is there an ODT version of this PDF document? (I find PDF awful to work with, Writer is more appropriated to notes, highlighting, etc.)

* as the doc. is from Feb 3, 2006, is it still true this sentence in chap. 4 "Authoring Help With OpenOffice.org" : "You need OpenOffice.org 1.1.x to use the help authoring environment. The authoring environment also is not yet compatible with OpenOffice.org 2.0"? Is it now compatible with OOo 2.3.*?

* where can I download the filter package? I tried "from the helpers/helpauthoring directory of the helpcontent2 CVS module", as the document tells, but I didn't find them there (I browsed the CVS on line and downloaded the whole tree with my CVS client, but this filter package isn't there)


Thanks in advice for answer,
regards

Ariel.
