Dear Jean and developers of OOoBase: The Base tutorial is about 80% finished. The text has received input from Drew Jensen (invaluable help, thanks!) and William Marchant, who is editing it. Stephane, a member from a French OOo list is attempting a translation to French (and when I'm done with the English version, I will start a translation to Spanish!). Unfortunately, the 20% remaining can only be completed with the assistance of a technical person, someone like Drew who knows Base intimately. At this moment Drew is taking some time off of the project to attend other matters. Jean, I would be very appreciative if you can connect me with one of the other Base programmers you know. I can see that there is a lot of enthusiasm with the release of version 3 and I am sure that most resources are devoted to this endeavor. However, one can only notice that the folders at OOoAuthors for a Base Guide are empty for both, versions 2 and 3(*). I believe that this tutorial can come in on time to fill a very important gap. Given that this project is so close to completion, I really urge a programmer to take interest in it and give William, Stephane and me the help we need to finish the tutorial as soon as possible.
I have posted requesting help not only in this list but also in the [EMAIL PROTECTED] list, but with no success. I am now appealing to your influence. Thanks in advance, Mariano. (*) On the other side, documentation.openoffice.org has only two entries for Base: The manual by Manuel Naudin translated to English from French, and an early an incomplete first draft of the Tutorial. You can find them here: http://documentation.openoffice.org/servlets/ProjectDocumentList?folderID=597&expandFolder=597&folderID=597. Jean, I also have in my hard disk a copy of the manual in which you participated but I am now unsure about where to find it.
