Have you stopped taking your medication again Tom? ;-) It took me a while, but I've now worked out what you're talking about.

[libreoffice-documentation] Re: Placing Chapter 2 on my Alfresco dashboard
Hi :) Thanks :) Since Jean fixed you up with a login so fast i thought i could play. I've always thought it odd that web-mistress sounds quite raunchy whereas web-master doesn't. Nowadays orgs here seem to prefer web-designer as a gender-neutral term. I've not heard of web-people before (except some vague memory of an amusingly arty William Hartnell's Dr-Who 3 or 4 parter and, of course, Spiderman ('real' name Peter Parker)) Regards from Tom :) -- View this message in context: http://nabble.documentfoundation.org/Placing-Chapter-2-on-my-Alfresco-dashboard-tp3830229p3834511.html Sent from the Documentation mailing list archive at Nabble.com. -- Unsubscribe instructions: E-mail to documentation+h...@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
[libreoffice-documentation] Base Chapter 2: Designing and planning your database
I have put a copy of this in the feedback folder on the ODF site. It contains Mark's comments on content and a lot of small stylistic changes by me. As a general comment, I don't agree with Dan's use of DBMS and RDBMS, as I think these terms should refer to software (such as Base), not to data. My preferred terms are database and relational database. -- Hazel Russman hazeldeb...@googlemail.com -- Unsubscribe instructions: E-mail to documentation+h...@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
Re: [libreoffice-documentation] Base Chapter 2: Designing and planning your database
Hi :) I prefer the use of words rather than initials as long as those words are carefully defined earlier or in a glossary at the end (or both) so that people learn to use the correct words in the right way. I think it's a fairly minor issue tho and i'm happy either way.

Hi :) Was it the beta version that stopped working or a previous release and did you try asking the MariaDb forums?

My preferred terms are database and relational database From a CS point of view at least, you are right. DBMS (DataBase Management System) / RDBMS (Relational DataBase Management System) are terms that refer to the software that manages databases, while database is meant to refer to the data that is being managed. RDBMS would be your HSQLDB, MySQL, Sqlite or whatever. I don't think Base should be described as a RDBMS though, it is just a frontend to several of them.
