Hello

I've uploaded an edited draft of GS4201, this time using the most recent, translation-friendly GS4001 file as a starting point. The draft can be found here:
http://www.odfauthors.org/libreoffice/english/getting-started/draft-lo-4.2/gs4201-introducing-libreoffice/view

In this version, I've made the same changes that were made in the earlier draft and have also updated screen captures for Figure 1 and Figure 10. These images were captured from LO4.2 beta2 running on Windows 8.1. I've cropped window borders to make them more OS-neutral. They were exported to PNG format and can be uploaded if required.

I've marked my initials on the User Tasks Guide (https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/ReleaseNotes/4.2) for chapter 1. If I get time over the weekend I will edit and upload chapters 2 and 3.

Regards,

Martin

Thanks for this work, Martin. I've just had a quick look at your
additions to the User Guide Tasks page, which are just what we need. I
just hope other people pay attention to them, as well as doing their
own reviewing, when updating the chapter files.

If you, or anyone else, want to start doing updates to the chapter
files, you can use the 4.0 files from here:
http://www.odfauthors.org/libreoffice/english/getting-started/published-lo-4.0
or from here: 
https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Documentation/Publications#Getting_Started_with_LibreOffice

Both sets have had Milos's style cleanups applied.

Please put the edited files here (as you did for chapter 1):

Hello

I've recently had time to look at sections of the Getting Started guide with
a view to updating it to the LO 4.2 branch.

I've taken a look at the first three chapters (of the most recent published
versions edited by Jean) and noted the changes brought about in the Windows
8.1 version of LO 4.2 beta 2.

I did not edit any of the guides directly and upload them as I was unsure
whether to edit the recent versions published by Jean or to make edits to
the auto-formatted versions submitted to the mailing list by Milos.  There
is also the fact that the stable LO 4.2 release may introduce further
changes.

Instead, I've made a detailed list of the aspects that will need updating
upon release of LO 4.2 and noted some of them here:
https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Documentation/Development/UserGuideTasks

Unfortunately, in submitting the form (as a test) before  adding all the
notes, I have been throttled so am unable to make further changes until the
anti-spam time limit expires.  I have attached an ODT file containing all
the changes so perhaps someone can update the page on my behalf.

I'll continue looking at the Getting Started guide when I get time (leaving
chapters 4, 6, 7 and 8 as noted on the User Guide tasks page above).

Merry Christmas,

Martin
