I will add some points about the Documentation NextCloud structure and how things have become somewhat confused.

When it was decided move from ODF Authors to NextCloud, I set up the NextCloud directory structure along similar lines to the one we had on ODF Authors. Although it was undecided if we needed a Published folder in the NextCloud structure. It was my understanding that our workflow would be also be very similar to Jean's original workflow diagram https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/File:Workflow.png

It was about this time that we started work on the Calc guide and somebody arbitrarily decided that copies of the 4.1 guide should be deposited in the 6.0 Drafts folder. From then on things got more and more confusing, especially for new contributors.

I agree with Jean and would advocate that we return to the original workflow. Other opinions?

It makes more sense to me for updates (or new chapters) to go in Drafts,
reviews in Feedback, and finished chapters in Published (the way we did it
in ODFAuthors), instead of the way we’ve been doing it in NextCloud.

Hi Dan

Documents for review should be in the Feedback folder.
I moved them there for you.

Kind regards, Kees

    I have completed editing the preface and chapter 1. These have been
uploaded to the Draft folder. (Is this the correct place, or what
would be a better place to put it?) I have also created a Guide status
spreadsheet based upon the Calc version. I have added one added
column: Replace screenshots. This has been placed in the Base Handbook
6.2 folder similar to where the guide status spreadsheet was placed in
Calc.

    My next project is to make necessary changes in two of the example
databases that were discussed in the two documents I have uploaded. I
plan to edit one chapter at a time, and as I do so, I will be also
making editing each mentioned example databases.

    In case anyone is interested, I have also created and uploaded ePUB
versions of the preface and chapter 1. They are also in the draft
folder. These are only examples of what is possible with this format;
when each document is ready for publishing, then they have to be
modified based upon any changes are made.
