Hello Everyone,
Well all of you need not to be distracted. I and Bernard Poole himself will
rewrite the guides. I will prepare the drafts and he will review them. Rest
of you may continue with the work on the main guides.

Simply agreeing on that.
Let's share (of course if allowed ;) ) what's useful

Re: [libreoffice-documentation] LibreOffice Tutorial

2020-03-24 Thread Dave Barton

A date has not yet been set. I propose the next meting be held on
Thursday, 26th. March at at 18:00 UTC. If others prefer an alternative
date or time please write back to this thread with your preference.

I would make 2 observations on the subject of this thread:

1. There are a number of third party tutorials (including the one by
Bernard John Poole) linked from our wiki:
https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Documentation/Third_Party_Resources

2. In terms of available contributors our resources are already spread
much too thinly for us to properly update and revise the existing
guides, without diluting our resources even further to rewrite an
existing publication.

While this is a "nice" idea, it would only serve to detract from the
main work of producing User Guides and the software's Help facility.

Obviously, if any individual chooses to undertake a rewrite of any third
party publication they are free to do so, but I do not think it should
become part of the documentation team's workload.

Hi, Pulkit,

decisions as to what the official Documentation-team-produced documentation
will be is decided on Doc team meetings.

Maybe it would be best to discuss this there before you start working on it.

Re: [libreoffice-documentation] LibreOffice Tutorial

2020-03-23 Thread Pulkit Krishna
Hello Everybody,
I have created a folder called LibreOffice Tutorials. I have placed the
Work Files for LibreOffice 6 in the supplemental folder inside it. I have
also uploaded the first draft of preface and chapter 1. I have updated the
spreadsheet accordingly. Can anyone take the preface and chapter 1 for its
review. I think 1 review would suffice.

That is all well and good and if you really want to spend time re-writing
it great.

What I'm saying is that what I would like to see first and also is for the
documentation page on the main website to have a place for listing these
types of resources so they get some visibility.

Another example, a series of books I didn't see listed there from Bruce
Byfield who did a nice job a couple years back on Typographic Design with
LibreOffice. I'm sure there are others. I think the ROI would be much
greater doing that then rewriting things so they are LO branded and
distributed from the TDF infrastructure.

I am not saying to remove the original guide. They can be there for the
teachers. We can change it to make it for everyone and publish the new
guides.
I have asked the permission of Benard Poole for it.

2020-03-23 Thread Drew Jensen
Howdy,

A short comings here, IMO (and it was inherited), is an uneasiness about
promoting anything that isn't sitting on a TDF property.

I would much rather see us put some thought into helping get the word out
that the resource for teachers is there then to take the time to rebrand it
and likely dilute it by changing the focus.

At this moment it seems particularly fitting given the number of people
faced with helping their children or themselves (k-college) deal with
switch from brick and mortar schools to virtual.
