I try to explain the differences between 2.2.9 and 2.4. > Do you have anything specific in mind? [<Tom:>] No, I do not have anything specific. I have the general experience of encountering in many places statements that specify which version a change applies to. Since the English is 3 years out of date (at least in some places), I realize there is a big job to bring it all to a timely description. The only trouble is that there are many users who have not upgraded to 2.2.9 as far as I know. So I have to be guided by what the developers think is appropriate. I expect that making the manuals consistent with 2.2.9 would leave only the need to upgrade to 2.4. I am waiting for their input on this. > > > Tom > Juergen _______________________________________________ gnucash-devel mailing list [email protected] https://lists.gnucash.org/mailman/listinfo/gnucash-devel
