All, To clarify my own thoughts and, hopefully, to help anybody else who wishes to be involved, I have tried to write down the steps involved in updating and reviewing one chapter of the Calc Guide. Please see below.
(Please note that I am not intending to define the steps involved for any other guides!) If anybody feels that what I have written is illogical, or not in accordance with the Team’s agreed procedures, then please let us know through the mailing list. Regards, Steve -------------------------------------------- (1) Initial update. (a) Author copies master version of source file from relevant folder in Nextcloud to own computer.
