Hi :) Andrew, ODFauthors might be able to help with advice.
I think the eventual aim here is to reduce the amount of branding in documentation so that most of the books can be quickly re-branded and thus be used for both OOo and LO. Of course LibreOffice has more functionality so it's likely to be easier to write the 1st version for LO. Then just delete some sections, swap covers and maybe screen-shots to re-release for OOo. Judging from recent questions in the Users List a macro's guide would be very much appreciated soon. Apache are likely to have OpenOffice as an "Incubator Project" for quite a long time while preparing it to be a proper Apache project.

Disclosure: I was one of the technical editors for that book. As time permits I am working through an updated revision. With this entire OOo / LO thing, I think that I need to ask the artist to modify the cover art.... will wait until thing settle out to see what happens with the OOo name, Apache, and LO. Riding the fence on what to do with this thing when I am done and how much extra stuff to add. -- Andrew Pitonyak My Macro Document: http://www.pitonyak.org/AndrewMacro.odt Info: http://www.pitonyak.org/oo.php -- Unsubscribe instructions: E-mail to documentation+h...@global.libreoffice.org Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/documentation/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted -- Unsubscribe instructions: E-mail to documentation+h...@global.libreoffice.org Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/documentation/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted
