I would be interested in assisting with the documentation for base, primarily
the proofreading. I don't currently use base (or any database) and feel that
this would help me to also understand the concepts and utilization of this
portion of LibreOffice.
I use both Linux and Windows although primarily Linux. I have been a moderator
for the LO mail-list for about a year and wish to contribute more. I am a
retired engineering technician (electro-mechanical) and have been involved in
producing user documentation and technical manuals for the medical and
automotive fields.
Thanks for your consideration, Tom Taylor
Welcome to the document group! My first suggestion is to use the
following link to download the Introducing Base chapter. In the Contents
section, click on 1.8 LibreOffice Base Guide. Then you will find this
chapter listed. (Download the 4.2 version.
Proofread the chapter. Two things you need to do: Edit > Changes
> Record; and Edit > Changes > Show. The one records the changes, and
the second one shows what you have changed. These place a line through
what you want to change and also adds what you want to change it to.
This is a good beginning point, and there will be more directions
given when you have completed this.
