Don't worry we will come back to this soon. See you on our Brazilian list R. 2011/3/1 Helmar tuc...@gmail.com Well...

I can dedicate my time and all my efforts to work on this but I'm afraid I don't have the knowhow to do it...

For the FR documentation you're developing, you can open an Ubuntu specific part on our wiki under this page: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/FR/La_documentation_de_l%27utilisateur and cross link to your docs on Ubuntu. Don't worry about the presentation on the page above, once the wiki has migrated to our FR domain, we will draw and use a nice template. I had a quick look to your page when you announced it to our list, where do you want me to give you the feedback: within a mail or do you have a file I can modify?

Hi, :-) David Nelson On Thu, Feb 24, 2011 at 18:05, Karl-Heinz Gödderz libreoff...@gukk-online.de wrote: just to inform you, the published versions of the documentations are on the Wiki http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Documentation in Alfresco and ODF-Authors are only the working copies. So it would be better to use the documents on the Wiki, I think. It would be even better if Johnny were to work with the LibreOffice docs team here and not to duplicate effort needlessly, don't you think, Karl-Heinz? The best way to contribute to LibreOffice documentation is to work with the LibreOffice docs team. It's pointless for outside projects to be developing documentation for LibreOffice separately from the LibreOffice project. My 2 cents.

Re: [libreoffice-documentation] Ubuntu Community Documentation
Hi Johnny, :-) Well that could be one approach. But the documentation we have is still very much a work in progress. We'd be continuing to work on it, and you'd have an out-of-date copy. It would be particularly sad since we are about to re-do *all* the screenshots in the docs. They're currently mostly taken under Windows. The plan is to re-take all the screenshots under Ubuntu 10.10. And that's just one of the tasks scheduled. We'd love to keep you with us, Johnny. It seems like a sad duplication of effort for you to be documenting LibreOffice over there while we're doing the same thing over here. :-D When you wrote to me asking me where to start, I mentioned that the best thing would be to write to Hal and Barbara on the list, because they are the people with the closest view of the work right now. Me, I've been busy dealing with Alfresco, plus I've also had client work to do that has meant that I've not actually been doing any documenting recently. To make up for that, I had volunteered to re-take all those screenshots. But, for instance, this could be one task you could help out with, Johnny. Hal, Barbara, can you guys organize Johnny and me and point us both at some work, given that you know best where we are with things right now? By the way, we already have a couple of meta tasks we need to get done: 1) We need to finalize a LibreOffice versioning system to maintain in the meta info of each file we work on. 2) We need to finalize the chapter template.

Re: [libreoffice-documentation] Ubuntu Community Documentation
Hi Johnny, :-) In any case, it's great that you're an Ubuntu user. Me, too. We can perfectly well divide the screenshooting (screenshotting?) between us. For the desktop theme, I'd go with the default Ubuntu theme. The tool I'd use, unless you have a better suggestion, would be gnome-screenshot. In LibreOffice Options General Open/Save dialogs, we should activate Use LibreOffice dialogs. Let's wait for Hal, Barbara and whoever else to post back and then figure out a work specification all together (what's needed, sizes, etc.) . I'll be free to work on this Saturday or Sunday.

Re: [libreoffice-documentation] Ubuntu Community Documentation
Hi :) I think Ubuntu's Community Documentation tries to do too much sometimes.External links are a good idea but it can be tricky trying to find something suitably reliable to link to. Hopefully most distros will be able to just link directly to our documentation here.
