Re: [libreoffice-documentation] Efforts to Clean Wiki
Sounds good - interested in helping to coordinate that :) I'll help but I can't be in a 100 places at once :-D. Also - is there any interest of getting a IRC channel together for documentation? It's been quite awesome for QA (and devs of course). Let me know if there's interest there and I'll get one set up. ~Joel On 05/03/2015 05:10 PM, jonathon wrote: On 03/05/15 17:30, Joel Madero wrote: I'm just curious if documentation team is doing anything to clean the wiki.

(For reasons I won't go into, it is best for me not to be a formal member of any group, regardless of how casual said group is.) is there any interest of getting a IRC channel together for documentation? What would the function/purpose of the channel be? How would it integrate into the existing work-flow? Maybe provide examples of how dev and QA use it. jonathon -- To unsubscribe e-mail to: documentation+unsubscr...@global.libreoffice.org Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/documentation/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted
