NO updates have been made to the files for v4.4 so far, with some small exceptions (and the Draw chapter that PeterS did). They have been put into a new template; that's all. Some of the character styles may have got lost during the update, so you'll probably find many examples where they are different from before and should be made consistent with whatever the style guide and template say. However, the use of italics with the names of dialogs was not consistent in the Getting Started book. I prefer no italics; some people prefer italics. Doesn't really matter which we use, and I don't remember what the style guide and template say. As for the Base chapter, I replaced the previous version with one that is older but covers relational as well as flat databases. It has NOT been updated for v4.4. Sorry about the inconvenience for translators, but the older version fits better with the Base Handbook. --Jean -- To unsubscribe e-mail to: [email protected] Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ 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
