--- Comment #2 from Mike Kaganski <mikekagan...@hotmail.com> --- I would like our documentation to be as complete and correct as possible. However, this proposal is unclear and partially incorrect to me. 1. It shows the existing text and proposed text verbatim, requiring me to inspect it carefully to find the difference (it would be nice if it just skipped unchanged parts, and suggested "change this: BLAH - to this: BLEH"). 2. It tells about operating system settings (and the older version did, too), which is wrong. What matters is LibreOffice configured locale settings, which *may* be (and by default is) defaulting to OS locale (but e.g. not to OS-configured custom separators - we have a issue for that). The proposal goes into details about as subtle matter as space between sign and following number, which I have never met in any reasonable programming language documentation (it's OK to mention trimming leading space). When mentioning hex/octal notation, we need to refer to an article about literals (do we have it yet?). Anyway, I fail where current help is "inappropriate" or "misleading". I would appreciate if users used appropriate wording trying to *not* demean the effort that others put into writing something that would simply not exist otherwise. Improving existing text is always easier than creating something new. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
