Hi :)
I'm sure there is some confusion somewhere.  The 3.3.x series is not "older" 
and 
the 3.4.x "new".  Both series are being developed alongside each other.  


The next release of LO is due to be the 
3.3.4 due out on Aug 17th give or take a day or 2.  Then the 
3.4.3 on Aug 31st and 
3.4.4 on Oct 5th followed by 
3.3.5 on Oct 19th.
Regards from
Tom :)

I have been thinking about the pros and cons of a new doc set vs "new in
3.4" info in the same chapter, but I have not had time to read up on
just what has changed from 3.3.x to 3.4.x. Sometimes relatively minor
functional differences mean that fields are moved from one dialog box to
another, or the names of things change, or other changes are made that
are difficult to handle clearly in a single file. Other times, what you
suggest works well.

When I've had time to look at the changes, I'll have something less
vague to say on the subject.
