I'll also see if another admin at FM can help. I was embarrassed when I went to someone's house this week to help her with her XO and saw the big ol' G1G1 she had printed. :) > > So, the truth, the whole truth is, that the laptop.org/manual < >> http://laptop.org/manual> and PDF and Help Activity should be >> synchronized. >> I will republish for the Help Activity and laptop.org/manual < >> http://laptop.org/manual> though. >> > But all three are unchanged and still not in sync.

The source files are all the chapters in the Sugar and XO books. Every single chapter has INCLUDE code pointing to one of the chapters from either the XO or Sugar manual. It works quite well! But yeah we're trading off clarity and support ease with what might appear to be black magic. :) > > BUG: All the HTML pages are untitled because they have two <title> tags >> and the first one is blank. >> >> I'll log this as a bug in trac.flossmanuals.net < >> http://trac.flossmanuals.net> to have dev investigate further.

Oh, shoot! I'm glad you pointed this out - I logged these two and one additional where the title page for the PDF is now saying Inkscape, ha ha. Logged with attachments showing what you found.

Yeah we still have additional support we need for the Help Activity 1. CSS updates (though looking at the ticket it does seem to be mostly resolved within the parameters given) and 2. git/code access. Thanks again for coming back again - it's very useful to have quality checks on our docs. I can tell you take pride in this - we don't always see this level of dedication in the corp. world. :) Anne > > > Regards, > -- > =S Page > -- Anne Gentle email: [email protected] blog: www.justwriteclick.com
