Hi all, we must discuss what to do with the user manual.
We have several questions: - Shall we transform it into another format (docbook, OpenOffice)? - Where do we publish it? - Who will maintain it? I think Philip has done a good job maintaining the manual until he left for a limited time and I would have a bad feeling if we do something dramatic with it. I would suggest to : - keep current format - include new chapters (JS calendar, searching, foreign keys,..) - carefully add corrections where needed That way we could keep it up to date and offer Philip to take responsibility for it again, still using the format he has chosen. If he's back, we can surely discuss if another format would be better for the project, but better let's do this discussion not when he's away. If we include docs about our extensions, offer it as a doc file as well as in pdf format, we will not have too much work and the user manual is already better than the docs for lots of other projects where you have to read sources to understand what is going on. Maybe this is not the perfect solution, but it would be easy, could be done quickly and would respect Philip's work. Just a suggestion, and whatever we will do in the end, we also need a person to do it. Who volunteers? And is anybody out there volunteering to start a FAQ?
