Peter, Unless there are major differences from 3.4 to 3.5 that would affect Chs1-5, I suggest you start updating to 3.5 from Ch 6. When Chs 6-11 & App A are done, then go back to Chs1-5 and update them from 3.4 to 3.5.
Meanwhile I will put Chs 1-5 on the wiki in the v3.4 column (unless you do it first). They probably don't need the "Draft" designation that Tom mentioned in a later note, with the possible exception of Ch5. I'll do a quick check of Ch5 which I don't think I've looked at previously. What do you think of that idea? --Jean On Wed, Feb 15, 2012 at 16:09, Peter Schofield <[email protected]> wrote: > Hello Jean and Tom > > I can easily start upgrading 3.4 Impress to 3.5 Impress. > > Chapters 1 to 5 Impress 3.4 would have to be upgraded as they are published > or very close to being published. > > I have Chapter 6 Impress 3.4 already downloaded on my iMac ready to start an > upgrade to version 3.4 or 3.5. > > I will download LO3.5 onto my very old Toshiba (my test laptop) to check the > differences with LO3.4. > > Start upgrading to 3.5 - YES or NO?
