Re: [libreoffice-documentation] Ready for final review - WG 6.4 Ch 3
Thanks, Toni. I found some tracked changes in the file and removed them. I've replaced the file in the Feedback folder.

Additionally, and something that many Linux only users often forget. This whole shebang is supposed to run on multiple OSes. Apple's store certification policy does not like anything that requires Java, calls to Java or even mentions Java. This is why hsqldb is not supported in the LibreOffice Vanilla product, and no Java functionality is supported (which sucks as a user, but, OK, this is Apple). If you want to use LibreOffice with any sort of Java functionality on macOS, you have to use the LO TDF download. It is secondary to the issue of why not change to a more recent version of hsqldb engine, but it is important. It does however tend to favour an end goal of having a product that does not have to rely on Java to provide core functionality (some would even argue that it is not core functionality). There is also the fact that Oracle's JDK has changed, not only in the way calls are made to the required components when a JVM is instantiated, but also in the licensing. This represents an extra developer hurdle to contend with when trying to get LO to function with an uptodate integrated version of the latest hsqldb engine. As I recall, a single developer has already looked twice at starting with coding the integration, but the barrier to entry is just too high for one person to take on alone.

[libreoffice-documentation] Re: Writer Guide 6.4 updaters & reviewers - please advise status of chapters
I have completed going through SB's revisions of Chapter 13. The file is now in the Feedback folder. Would be useful for someone else to review it as well.
