[libreoffice-users] Getting Started Guide complete(ish)

2013-02-13 Thread Tom Davies
Hi :)
WH!!!  The documentation team have managed to get the Getting Started 
Guide's chapters all done and ready for use several months ahead of normal

https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Documentation/Publications

The next step of collecting all the chapters into one book and then getting it 
out to the various distribution points (such as the Lulu bookstore, Ubuntu App 
Store and other places, oh and the official LibreOffice web-page) is quite 
painful so it could take a few days.  Unitl then you can find all the 
individual chapters at
https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Documentation/Publications

A few regulars from this mailing list have joined the Docs Team in the last 
couple of days but even so the Docs Team could still use more people.  Even if 
you lack experience of LibreOffice and are not familiar with writing guides you 
could still be a big help in the reviewing / proofreading process to see if any 
small adjustments might make it easier for new people to understand.  Also 
anyone that can translate from French to English might be useful to help with 
the Faq, or with the Maths Guide.  Anyone able to translate from German to 
English might be able to help translate the Base Handbook.  Anyone that has 
even a vague clue about using Base might be able to help with the full Base 
Guide (or with helping check the translation of the handbook or the Faq).  


WoH!!
Regards from
Tom :)

Just downloaded and read the Getting Started PDF for 4.0. Very Good! Only have 
one comment: It would be nice if the Cover had the version number the manual 
is for. 

i could see people using the wrong if they downloaded mutiple versions they 
support. Will read other sections as time permits.
