Tom, On this page http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Documentation is a section titled "Joining the Documentation Team" that points to this page, http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Documentation/Development which has a section titled "First steps with the Documentation Team" that has links to the four draft chapters of the Documentation Contributors' Guide. The working copies of those chapters are on Alfresco, but I thought it was important for people to be able to get them without having an Alfresco account or even needing to know about our Alfresco site.
Most of that was put there yesterday by me when I was doing a bit of reorganisation in the hope of making things easier to find. More work needs to be done, of course... on both the wiki pages and the Contributors' Guide. I believe David is working on the first chapter of the guide, Joining the LibO Docs Team; at least, he has that one checked out of Alfresco. --Jean On Tue, 2011-05-31 at 21:47 +0100, Tom Davies wrote: > Hi :) > Song Chuan > Many people prefer posting replies at the bottom of threads so you might have > missed their replies unless you scrolled down. > > > David, or anybody > Do we have good links for guides on how to get started with documentation in > English (well, american).
